Our Division is doing provost duty in the city and 3-enl. Geary is in command of the Post. I think if 3-enl. Deary continues in command that we shall remain here to garrison the Town, at least I hope so for it is much better to lay in camp with plenty of rations than to he marching all around over the whole confederacy
