In Washington, hearing Earley's guns on the Suburbs.

I was shipped hence to Lincoln Hospital, Washington, D. C. While lying on my cot afterwards I could hear the boom of General Early's guns around the walls of the city, after having chased Hunter down the valley from Lynchburg, and I heard the Yankees say, ‘I believe the rebels will get in in spite of us.’
