would be within sixty -four miles Of Petersburg fhomas

and thence upon Richmond from the west
This combination Is very ambitious Its object ID q

overwhelm him by the concentration Of force Not only
IL Richmond 10 fall fruit OF the campaign, but IN his
dreams General Grant General Lee unable 10 meet
him In BATTLE unable 70 retreat and unable 70 subsis

is to be drawn around him last The anaconda fold OF
which we have heard much and which was 70 have
