e south bank of the Roanoke, near the junction of the Dan and Staunton rivers, and but a short distance from Boston, on the Richmond and Danville road, thirty-one miles above Danville. In order to cut Johnston off, or reach the vicinity of the Danville road as soon as he does, General Sherman has to move from Raleigh to Clarkesville, when he will be twenty-two miles from Hicksford junction, the nearest point of railroad communication with General Grant's left wing.
