Excerpt from Journal of William H. Richardson: A Private Soldier in the Campaign of New and Old Mexico, Under the Command of Colonel Doniphan of MissouriWin - At day-light this morning our train was under way, arrived in town for breakfast, after which our Captain marched us all over the city. It is a beautiful inland place of 1000 inhabitants. Fifteen miles further on we met our first Lieutenant, just from the Fort. He told us to hurry on and get mustered into service before the other companies should crowd in. We hurried accordingly and reached Platt City at sun-set. I was fatigued and hungry, and went into the hotel to get my supper, when I came out, I found our third Lieutenant had come up with the rest of the men, and were ready to start for the ferry.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
