entrate the Western forces under Joe Johnston, against Rosencranz at Tullahoma, and add his two divisions, which would enable Johnston to crush Rosencrans; after which they could turn their faces North, and with this splendid army march through Tennessee and Kentucky and threaten the invasion of Ohio. In the march through those States, he thought the army would meet no organized obstruction, and supplies would be plentiful. Mr. Seddon, he says, did not accede to his views, not, he thought fronnsylvania would accomplish the same results, to which he replied he did not see that it would, and the movement would be too hazarous, and the campaign in thoroughly Union States would require more time and greater preparation than one through Tennessee and Kentucky. The account proceeds, I soon discovered that he (Lee) had determined he would make some forward movement, and I finally assented that the Pennsylvania campaign might be brought to a successful issue if he could make it offensive

With Forrest in West Tennessee. From Richmond, Va., Times-dispatch, February 6, 1910. Winter campaign of 1862 filled with adventures and incidents. By Dan W. Beard. About December 1, 1862, we broke camp at Columbia and took the Mt. Pleasaest had, I heard Tom Jones say: Madam, I would tell you if I could. Do you know how many trees there are standing in West Tennessee? She said she didn't, and Tom told her Forrest had men enough to put one behind each tree, and two or three behind tit fully fifteen feet high.

In the circular which accompanied the proclamation and fixed the quota of troops to be furnished by each State, States like Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas and other Southern States which whilst they fully recognized the right of a State to secede at any time it saw fit to do so, had not yet seceded themseection for delegates to the Convention, voted for the Union by an immense majority, they now ratified it by a vote of almost exactly four to one. North Carolina, Tennessee and Arkansas all followed suit, and went out of the Union as quickly as they could; North Carolina by a unanimous vote of her convention; Arkansas with only one dissenting vote, and Tennessee by a vote of her people of considerably more than two to one.

Forrest's men rank with Bravest of brave. By Dan W. Baird. When General Bragg returned from his Kentucky campaign Forrest furloughed his Middle Tennessee troops, with instructions to visit their respective homes and to secure as many recruits as possible. In recruiting they were highly successful, and when the Wilson county contingent joined the main command at Lavergne, November 2, 1862, Company C, of Starnes' Fourth Tennessee Regiment numbered about 180 men and boys, the majority of them wholly untrained either in cavalry or infantry tactics. On the same day they were furnished with arms and accoutrements, such as they were, Enfield rifles, Belgian muskets, shotguns and what were called Mississippi rifles, probably because these guns were made in Nashville, Lebanon and various other towns. Early next morning the command moved toward Nashville on the Murfreesboro Pike a few miles, when our regiment turned to the left, crossed the railroad under the bridge over a dry branch
