Sabbath Morning Aug 21st. 63 We are still at Moscow. expecting orders every day to start home The past two or three days have been exceedingly wet and this morning it is cloudy although it has all the appearance of clearing away - A scout went out this morning intending to stay probably two days - they were accompanied by about sixty cavalry I am so glad that we only have to put in one more sabbath in the service. Oh but I will enjoy the S.S. and church exercises - and then the quiet of home how pleasant it will be, only Eleven days.
