Page 94: April Alexandria 16 Not gone yet. But shall go tomorrow. This afternoon I visited Washington. Went by the way of Long Bridge—found one of the piers down and so had to leave my horse behind and be ferried over. Brady had my college album pictures all completed. Made a package of them at once, and sent by Adam’s Express directed to my friend J.H.Coffin. Also called at Glick’s and got my sergeant’s suit and old hat—paid the $3.75 that I owed him and sent it to J.H.C. Lost my way going to Long bridge, but in spite of discouragements found some one to ferry me over. Page 95: Got off with my horse about 17,, |
