208.-order of General W. T. Sherman.
headquarters at Iuka, Miss., October 25.
Order no. 2:
First. Major-General Frank Blair takes command of the Fifteenth and a portion of the Sixteenth army corps now in the field.
Third.
All officers in command of corps and fixed military posts will assume the highest military powers allowed by the laws of war and Congress.
They must maintain the best possible discipline, and repress all disorder, alarms, and dangers in their reach.
Citizens who fail to support the Government have no right to ask favors and protection, but if they actively assist us in vindicating the national authority, all commanders will assist them and their families in every possible way. Officers need not meddle with matters of trade and commerce, which by law devolve on the officer of the Treasury Department; but whenever they discover goods contraband of war being conveyed toward the public enemy, they will seize all goods tainted by such transactions
