I packed up that night, and early in the morning, about seven o'clock, I rode away through the fog that then hung over the camp." William Tecumseh Sherman, who was born at Lancaster, Fairfield County, in 1820, was like his comrade and beloved friend Grant in the poverty he was born to.
She jumped up and turned on more lights.
