Turned out at 4 A.M. Packed and
hitched up, and were soon after in
motion. Arrived at Alexandria at twelve
N. and encamped just outside the
town. During the afternoon we cleaned
up the battery preparatory to embarking
it. We are to ship from this place
to join Gen McClellan in front of
Yorktown. which place is very strongly
fortified and held by the John. Henry's.
Mild and Pleasant.
