I am very proud of that riding record and of my beard which is fine.

I will finish this when we get near a post-office.
DICK.
February 4th-- We rode forty miles through the brush but saw nothing of Garza, who was supposed to be in it.

But we captured 3 revolutionists, one of whom ran away but the scout got him.

Hardie, Tyler, who is his orderly, and the scout and I took them in because the rest of the column was lagging in the rear and the Lieutenant got bally hooly for it.

Tyler disarmed one and I took away the other chaps things.
