We look rougher than ever before in our lives 15" Got on the road early, our B_ in advance, and made good time all day. halting at dark having marched about 19 miles. Bore to the left of Columbia and are now a few miles from Lexington. Guess we are to intercept any force that may be coming from Augusta, Our 1" & 2" Div are where they are needed while our Div is with Corps
