Seeing our officer of the day, Lieutenant R.E. Callan, standing not far away and looming gigantic against the sky, I asked him the meaning of the noise; and he replied that it was Captain Macomb's troop of cavalry just coming in.
On Scott's arrival in Washington he asked for a court of inquiry, which was ordered on October 3d, composed of Major-General Alexander Macomb and Brigadier-Generals Henry Atkinson and Hugh Brady, with Colonel Cooper, General Macomb's aid-de-camp, as judge advocate. The court assembled at Frederick, Md., and was delayed some time by the absence of witnesses.
Disposition of our column The road to Sabana Grande The infantrymen's burden Wayside hospitality Hard tack and repartee Into camp and under blankets Arrival of Macomb's troop A smoke-talk. The disposition and arrangement of our forces on the first day's march can best be shown by the following document: GENERAL ORDERS No. 13.
This command will move out on the road to Sabana Grande at ten o'clock tomorrow morning. It will observe the following rules and order of march: Macomb's troop of cavalry will act as a screen, and will march about two miles in advance of the point of the advance-guard.
