With your veteran army I hope to get control of the only two through routes from east to west possessed by the enemy before the fall of Atlanta. The condition will be filled by holding Savannah and Augusta, or by holding any other port to the east of Savannah and Branchville. If Wilmington falls, a force from there can co-operate with you.
It was the letter from Ailsa the one that Garrison had missed the letter in which she had agreed to become his wife. He put forth his hand to receive it. "No, you don't!" cried the old man, snatching it out of his reach. "I'll keep this, if you please, to show my niece." Garrison's eyes glittered. "So, it was your hired thief who stole it, up at Branchville?" he said.

Thomas has got back into the defenses of Nashville, with Hood close upon him. Decatur has been abandoned, and so have all the roads, except the main one leading to Chattanooga.
The enemy's cavalry had retreated before us, but his infantry was reported in some strength at Branchville, on the farther side of the Edisto; yet on the appearance of a mere squad of our men they burned their own bridges the very thing I wanted, for we had no use for them, and they had.

If we can, we should act to prevent this. Your spare army, as it were, moving as proposed, will do it.
