[from the diary of William M. Blackford, bank officer and former diplomat with five sons in the Confederate Army]
Saturday 5 Went to the cars at an early
hour to put Mary Jane on board who
is unnecessarily called home by her Du
enna. Going to the Bank found
Jno Miller had gone to Richd to attend
to his brother Tom who was wounded
and that Mr [?]was sick--Jack
& I had a hard time--we got through
by engaging Mr Morrison to copy the
checks.--Went to Charles at Ingles
& staid until 10. Prospects brighten
of capturing all McClellans force
