Sunday, November 20, 1864

The 130th Illinois Infantry received orders today to be ready to embark this evening for New Orleans.  The orders were later changed, with the new departure time of 6 o'clock tomorrow morning aboard the Iberville.

Captain Wilkins and his detail have not yet returned to camp, and will likely be left behind.  They are still up the White River guarding a ship loaded with commissaries.
