I am sending all the transports I can find for you, reporting to General Sherman for orders to go up the Cumberland for you, or, if you march across to Fort Henry, then to send them up the Tennessee. G. W. CULLUM, Brigadier-General. On the 4th came this dispatch: To Major-General U. S. GRANT You will place Major-General C. F. Smith in command of expedition, and remain yourself at Fort Henry.
Drop that dry math. rot and stag it with me over at Cullum tonight. You can take math. up again after chapel tomorrow." "Thank you," replied Prescott, turning around from the study table at which he was seated. "I don't care much for the social whirl while there's any doubt about the January exams. It would be no pleasure to go over to Cullum.
I started for Paducah the same day, and think that General Cullum went with me to Cairo; General Halleck's purpose being to push forward the operations up the Tennessee River with unusual vigor. Louis, February 15, 1862 Brigadier-General SHERMAN, Paducah, Kentucky: Send General Grant every thing you can spare from Paducah and Smith and also General Hurlbut.
At last Sam Cullum found his feet and walked around the side of the dock to the shore. A crowd followed him and kept him from going at Joe again.

"I suppose he'll try to square up another time," answered our hero.
They were, indeed, women, even if very young ones. "We can hardly get excused from any duty," Dick smiled. "But to-day -a most unusual thing -there is no dress parade." "No parade?" exclaimed Mrs. Bentley in a tone of disappointment. "No; the officers are entertaining some distinguished outside visitors at Cullum Hall this afternoon, and the band is over at Cullum," Greg explained.
"Where did this come from?" asked Mrs. Cullum. "A friend," answered Joe. "It's all paid for." "I am very thankful." "Now we can have some bread, can't we?" queried the boy. "Yes, and a bit of smoked beef and cheese, too," said the mother, and placing the sleeping baby on a bed, she proceeded to deal out the good things to her children.
I remained about a week in Vera Cruz after the company sailed; arrived at West Point in July; and was ordered to report to Captain Cullum. A short time thereafter, I asked to be relieved from duty with the company; and applied for six months leave of absence. The leave was granted, and it was understood that, on its expiration, I would be ordered to other engineer service.

If you'll allow me, I'll put an advertisement in the Riverside News for you." "Thank you. I don't see what makes you so kind." "Well, I have been down in the world myself, Mrs. Cullum, so I know how to feel for others."
Here they stopped, and Sid Northcutt produced a coarse bag, whose mouth was held open by a barrel hoop, and a tallow candle, which he lighted and handed to the elate hunter. "Now, Bud," Mr. Cullum said, when the bag was set on the edge of the gully, with its mouth towards the prairie, "you jest scrooch down behind this here sack an' hold the candle.
