� 80 April 4. Continued Manassas

Loading the trains we found to be no small job. It took a long time. But we got hungry soon, and it was decided to pay Mrs. Catt's a visit. Accordingly we walked over to that venerable place and took dinner. A little while after General Franklin with one of his staff arrived and we all took dinner together. For the first time in my life I dined with two generals.

About two o'clock we got off. It was after dark before we reached Manassas, and we "went to bed" almost "supperless."
