By command of Major-General Buell:
You will have f get guides from General Pope's command on their road to Danville.
H. W. Halleck, Major-General.
Pope's forces are nearly all past Danville and I suppose now are near Baldwin.
He expects an engagement to-day.
I think you will find the road clear of Pope's troops.
Lieutenant North will report to you as a guide this morning and General Pope will send others to meet you.
H. W. Halleck, Major-General.
I directed General Wood to push forward a brigade to Tuscumbia and Florence to receive the locomotives and cars from Paducah and Saint Louis now coming up the Tennessee.
He telegraphed to Colonel Kelton that he has orders from you not to pass Bear Creek.
See that this is made right.
Time with us now is everything.
Not a moment must be lost in opening communication to Mitchel.
H. W. Halleck, Major-General.
There is an order issued by you that none except officers on duty in this camp, not with-troops, shall occupy houses in this city.
It is violated
