He drove the enemy from every position where he made a stand, and encamped for the night near the Station No. 1. The Fifteenth corps marched as follows: the detached brigades succeeded in reaching the Savannah and Gulf Railroad at different points, and destroying it. The Third division, General John E.

The remainder of the march was much impeded by low broad marshes, which it was invariably found necessary to corduroy. From Summertown to the Cannouchee River, which was reached the seventh, the Third division, General John E. Smith, with my own, formed a column, under my command, and was somewhat exposed to annoyance from the enemy endeavoring to reach Savannah from the west, before us.
