Albert W. Barber writes a continuation of his March 29 Letter that he was unable to send. He details that they have now left Lancaster and have been on the move constantly and he notes that they were unable to cross Dick's River due to the bridge being burned. Barber details their travels, the terrain and plant life they have come across, the route they have taken, as well as where they have stopped to eat and sleep. Barber writes of a skirmish with the Rebels, and notes that they were able to retrieve some of the cattle and Prisoners that the Rebels had taken. Barber continues the letter on April 3, where he further writes of their movement and arrival in Stanford. Barber concludes by detailing that Jude, George, Luther, and Kin Shepardson are well, however he has not heard from Ralph or Philip.
