The Daily Dispatch: March 11, 1864., [Electronic resource], From Gen. Longstreet 's command . (search)
From Gen. Longstreet's command.
--A correspondent of the Savannah Republican, writing from Strawberry Plains, East Tennessee, February 22d, furnishes the following items of interest:
To-day a General Order from Division Headquarters, announced to the soldiers of Gen. Hood's old division that Gen command.
The orders was issued by Gen. who expressed himself highly honored in being appointed to lead these time-honored veterans, and as he placed implicit confidence in them he hoped ay we are expecting orders to move after them on the same route, and rumors are afloat that the enemy has been reinforced and is moving a column up the valley beyond Clinch Mountain, to fall suddenly across the Holston up near Rogersville on Gen. Longstreet's rear.
No doubt Grant has discovered the necessity of removing this force from his left flank before venturing to penetrate the interior of Georgia.
This may be a step for that purpose, and Gen. L. discovering it, is preparing to meet it.
