I learned the next day that two rebel spies had in fact been prowl- ing about the neighborhood for several days, and tliat iho. -e officers (for such they were) had been searching for them. A week at Richmond, three days at Paint Lick Creek, a tributary of the Cumberland, a week at Lancaster, and on we go, still southward, till we reach Crab Orchard, a Kentucky watering place of con- siderable note, where we remained for ten days. It was not every brigade that was allowed to spend this length o...f time at a fashionable southern w^ater- ing place during the sultry days of June, at the expense of the Government. Instead of proceedmg still further southward, as had been expected, we w^ere here suddenly ordered to execute a " right about face, " and retrace our steps to Nicholasville, a point twelve miles south of Lex- 38 SERVICE WITH THE ington, where it was understood we were to take the cars en route for the for-off city of Vicksburg, where we were to assist General Grant in the sieoe against that rebel stronghold.
