Headq'rs 1st Corts, Traks-MississippiArmy, in the field, Dec. 4. 1863.
Soldiers.: From the commencement to the end of the battle bear constantly in mind what I now impress upon you:
1.
Never fire because your comrades do, nor because the enemy does, nor because you happen to see the enemy, nor for the sake of firing rapidly.
Always wait until you are certainly within the range of your guns, then single out your man, take deliberate aim, as low down as the knee, and fire
2.
When occasion offers graves of your kindred.
If each man of you will do what I have urged upon you, we will utterly destroy them.
We can do this; we must do it; our country will be reined if we fait.
A just God will strengthen our arms and give us a glorious victory. T. C. Hindman, Major-General Commending. R. C. Newton, A. A. General.
