s of cars and put under the command of General Joseph Hooker, for it had been resolved to recall Gehe hostile army which was beyond? I saw General Hooker after he had received his instructions fro of the country around Chattanooga, I saw that Hooker had good reasons for his surmises; for Lookoutalking. In a few minutes a staff officer from Hooker came in and offered Grant a carriage to take him to Hooker's headquarters, a quarter of a mile distant-extending also an invitation to the generalf Hooker's hospitality. Grant replied: If General Hooker wishes to see me he will find me on this tississippi; therefore, before this he had left Hooker's command. The remainder of the Twelfth Corpss, it was for him a hazardous thing to do. General Hooker deemed this necessary to the holding of Lomary arrangements were effected, I said to General Hooker: With your approval, I will take the two c orders: I most heartily congratulate you, General Hooker, and the troops under your command, at the[10 more...]

On November 25th Hooker succeeded in performing his appointed part in , had made some of these crags impregnable. Hooker and his men had already fought above the cloudion. He afterwards waited a little longer for Hooker, who was on his other flank. What could that rehensions were relieved. A message arrived. Hooker, having the bridge ahead of him destroyed by ty commanded Bragg's left, had greatly bothered Hooker's men, but the obstacle was finally overcome, a bridge was built and Hooker had passed over and was working up the slope of the south end of Missumming up our losses in the several combats of Hooker, Sherman, and Thomas, gave them as 757 killed,s temporary city in Lookout Valley had General Joseph Hooker for its governor.

om my camp in Lookout Valley to Chattanooga, some eight or ten miles, and visited General Thomas. He explained that the order was already prepared for consolidating the Eleventh and Twelfth Corps into one body to form the new Twentieth, of which Hooker was to have command. Slocum was in Vicksburg, Miss., to control operations in that quarter, and I was to go to the Fourth Corps to enable Gordon Granger to take advantage of a leave of absence. I was to gain under these new orders a fine corpchofield constantly pressing his heavy skirmish lines from Red Clay toward Dalton, to unveil from that northern side Johnston's half-concealed intrenchments. A couple of miles away to my right, southward, on May 9th, the Twentieth Corps, under Hooker, had hard fighting indeed. Fifty men were killed and a large number wounded. My personal friend, Lieutenant Colonel McIlvain, Sixty-fourth Ohio, was killed here. Every regimental commander in this hard struggle was wounded. The Fourteenth Cor

nt. Thomas (Sherman being present) directed Hooker at once to send me a division, and with no delay Hooker detached from his Twentieth Corps the veteran division of A. S. Williams. Colonel Morgan, orning very early I reported for joint work to Hooker, my senior in rank. At his headquarters I lea or regiments against Hooker; and, further, as Hooker gained ground, I had so arranged as to follow fighting, the enemy, behind cover, would break Hooker's men back, only to try again. Finally, the l or a good part of it, was brought over to aid Hooker and me at any instant when Hooker should make 0 yards. We now know that Hood, in front of Hooker, had been constantly reinforced by Hardee and Polk, and that just as Hooker started his column Hood had pushed out his attacking lines, so that thn. This column was Schofield's, reenforced by Hooker's corps.

Hooker's troops had done the same thing as mine, but le, while their front was facing the attack of Hooker. This operation took place, as we have befod. McCook's cavalry was a little in advance of Hooker, well spread out. Schofield, farther to theskirmishing had begun. When Geary's division (Hooker's center) had come forward and was near Owen'swhich crossed Pumpkin Vine Creek. Geary, with Hooker's escorting cavalry and infantry, drove the ho into position. He declared that an attack by Hooker should be made at once. By this Sherman undouThomas, I deployed one division, according to Hooker's desire, near his left, and abreast of his trr of us had a stomach for attack or for battle at that time. Hood and Hooker were willing to wait. [17 more...]

In this manner Hooker was given the whole of Butterfield's division ut 9.20 P. M. He then wrote to Thomas, who was Hooker's army commander. After citing to Thomas two g I had no idea of his being attacked; and General Hooker must be mistaken about three entire corps ad been all the time in place, and close up to Hooker's right flank.

I had halted my head of column till Thomas could stop Hooker's cross march and let me take the road down river. It was precious time to l to Palmer athwart my path. At last we were ready to advance. I had the left, Hooker and McPherson the right, as we went. At a short distance below Marietta I caements of Schofield had forestalled and prevented any contact with the enemy by Hooker, or even by Blair and Dodge, till they had passed beyond him. They picked up a ituation. We will never have such a chance again, and I want you to impress on Hooker, Howard, and Palmer the importance of the most intense energy, of attack to-nig
