Washington.
Morning: I am riding to the transportation office in order to obtain from Captain Dana the wagons for for our weapons. Thereafter to General Quartermaster Colonel Rocke who tells me that the arsenal must send the goods by ship through Alexandria and then by railroad to us, as far as the railroad is going. - -
I ride to the arsenal and I am satisfied so that after dinner I am finished with my business in Washington.
Sergeant Heiland who promised the munitions for the Chief of Ordnance in Fairfax C.H. assumes the responsibility of taking my black mare along.
I am riding on quite pleasant roads with good weather, and, after an eight hour ride, arrive in Centerville.
