Colonel Craig was as desirous as myself to ascer- 
tain these facts, and to do all in his power to promote 
the health and comfort of his men. We accordingly 
made arrangements to set out on this journey on Fri-

able to ride in my carriage, although my wounded 
arm was still kept in bandages and firmly fastened to 
my side.
