The Federal army then continued its devastating route through South Carolina, and at the end of March had established itself at Goldsboro, in North Carolina, and was in readiness to aid Grant in his final attack on Richmond. Lee, seeing the imminence of the danger, made an attack upon the enemy in front of Petersburg, but was repulsed.

Not that the thought of the daily paper had not been all the time in the background of her mind, but having allowed her fancy to wander towards the attitude of the village and its prospective disturbance, she returned to the imminence of the daily paper again with a thrill of emotion.
The wretched traitor!" He leaned against the wall overcome by the horror of the conviction which had burst upon him, and unnerved by the imminence of the peril.
