Cordoba occupied by Huston's battalion of the Nineteenth Infantry, mounted detachment, and mountain battery. No resistance offered. The balance of the force has been assembled here. Rain has been exceedingly heavy. There is a bottom to the road from here to Cabatuan so far as examined. We have had to build one bridge, but will delay a little for stream to run out. Command in excellent spirits and health.
