13 June 1862

Friday, 13th Warm. E.I.R.B. 23 and 25 inclusive. This morn we started again on our march. The weather is very warm and the dust rises in clouds. We continued on our course and arrived at our old camp at 10 A.M. and pitched tents. Papers of the 7th report the evacuation of Ft. Pillow. Papers of the 8th report the occupation of Memphis by our forces.
