Nov. 24th Tuesday. Woke up this morning about five oclock and found the sky overcast. Soon after it commenced raining and continued at intervals all day. The troops got packed up but were ordered to pitch their tents again. We had the train all ready but were ordered to unhitch the team and leave the wagon loaded. There was not much to do today. It was very lonesome. A party from the old regiment went home today on reenlisting service.
