ave, however, both Dodge and Logan ready, so that, if the enemy should weaken himself much in front, they can advance. On the 19th, Thomas also was informed of Sherman's contemplated movement, and of the probability that no active operations in East Tennessee would be undertaken before the opening of spring. To cooperate with this movement, said Grant, you want to keep up the appearance of preparation for an advance from Chattanooga. It may be necessary even to move a column as far as La Fayette. . . . Logan will also be instructed to move at the same time what force he can from Bellefontaine towards Rome. We will want to be ready at the earliest possible moment in the spring, for a general advance. I look upon the line for this army to secure, in its next campaign, to be that from Chattanooga to Mobile; Atlanta and Montgomery being the important intermediate points. The complicated movements of Grant's three armies now reached over an extent of more than a thousand miles. T

Gallagher, Assistant Adjutant-General: sir,—This division, constituting at the time a part of Buckner's corps, with the exception of Johnson's brigade detached, marched on Thursday morning, September 17th, 1863, from Lafayette, Georgia, in the direction of Chattanooga. We bivouacked for the night on Peavine creek, and resumed the march next morning, with Bate's brigade in front, Clayton's following, and Brown's in rear, the column taking the direction to Thedford's Ford, on the west Chickamauga. Arriving during the afternoon of Friday, the 18th, within a mile or less of the ford, Major-General Buckner directed me to occupy the high ground in its vicinity, commanding the approaches to it, but not to bring on an enga

near Reed's bridge, going into bivouac about 12 o'clock that night. The morning of the 19th we crossed at Reed's bridge, and, bearing to the left, took position in front of what I think was the position occupied by Walker's division of reserves. About 2 o'clock P. M. we advanced upon the enemy, and soon became hotly engaged. The enemy slowly gave way before us, for a distance of two miles or more, until our line had crossed, nearly at right angles, the main public road leading from Lafayette, Georgia, to Chattanooga, Tennessee. In the farther edge of this road, near a small framed house, had been planted a battery of four guns. The enemy succeeded in carrying back his cannon, caissons, etc., by hand, after losing several horses and a number of artillerists. At that point we could make no further advance in consequence of greatly depleted ranks and want of artillery on our side, while the enemy was superior to us, five-fold in numbers, in position naturally stronger than ours, r
