and that 10000 more had gone BY land to

1t seems reasonable, Hoods army being SO
nearly hors dv combat, that Giant should
bring over a good part Of Thomas force to
the Atlantic side. where is now the only
scene of active warfare. With the Federal
armies thus heavily reinforced, Sherman eau
successfully prosecute his advance up through

still further isOiates the army Of Lee BY an
advance westward from his present linz.
