J. B. Jones, A Rebel War Clerk's Diary, I. April, 1861 (search)
re banished from the new confederacy. To make my Diary full and complete as possible, is now my business. And, When the hurly-burly's done, When the battle's lost and won, if the South wins it, I shall be content to retire to my farm, provided it falls on the Southern side of the line, and enjoy sweet repose under my own vine and fig-tree. April 30 Gen. Kearney has been brought here, having been taken on his way to Washington from Missouri.

This may be another Pawnee alarm of the government, and it may be the wolf. If some 30,000 of the enemy's troops make a dash at Richmond now, they may take it. But it will, of course, be defended with what means we have, to the last extremity. Still, I think it nothing more than a strategical movement to save Washington or to embarrass Lee's operations, and it will fail to retard his movement. We shall soon see what it is June 25TH.-The excitement has subsided. No doubt small detachments of the enemy were seen
