All their servants in Williamsburg, except Sam, who was hired at the lunatic asylum, are still in place. All slaves at the farm, except Jacob, are still there. Jacob \"enticed away\" by his wife a servant of Mrs. Tucker. All Mrs. Tuckers' slaves have run off. Thinks Yankees will abandon the lunatic asylum.

Will stop at Pittsylvania on his way to Danville. Was offered a higher paying position but turned it down to be able to go to Danville and be close to the family. Eventually he will hold the rank of captain and that will reward him with a higher salary. Then he can buy from the commissary \"sugar, bacon, flour, salt, etc. and this not for myself, but for my family.\" at government prices.","Preparing to leave Richmond to assume duties in the Quartermaster Corps collecting the tax in kind.
