[William Clayton Journal] Started this morning for another camp about 8 miles where we arrived about 5 P.M., the roads being somewhat hilly and muddy. The band played at night. During the day the artillery company broke into our ranks several times and broke a number of our wagon boxes. At night they complained of us at headquarters, but after hearing our story the matter stood about right.
