! Gen. Sherman continues. e believe it to
be wrong and damaging to increase the cavalry
at the expense Of the artillery and infantry.
The latter do as good service as cavalry, are as
necessary, and cost much less for their main
tenance, All are equally necessary, and should
be on par, but the President should have the
right to increase the companies stationed at
exposed points at the loss of others not SINH |
