Since Barrier's last letter he and the regiment have been on the move, as the army has fallen back across the Rapidan River. Sgt. William Fitzgerald of Co. F has been elected 2nd lieutenant. There are about fifty men fit for duty in the company. Barrier's head is healing nicely; his neck is still a little sore. Maj. Gen. Wade Hampton has returned to his division. Barrier expects that any day the army will recross the Rapidan.
