but instead Of attacking the stronghold
In front, where the enemy was pre-
pared to resist, the Yankee leader
marched his army around the town to
tempt the foe to an open field fight.
Bragg marched out southwark, and
the two armies played hide and seek
among the mountains Until Rosecrans
was on the inside of the circle, with
the enemy cut off from Chattanooga.
Bragg discovered his plight when
the Chickamauga creek lay between
him and the foe and Chattanooga. He
supposed that only some scattered d.
visions of Federals were posted as
guards of the roads back to Chattanoo-
ga. These he would brush away and
then turn and crush the rest Of Rose
Grams army. He sent one corps across
the creek on the 18th Of September.
These troops showed themselves to
some Federal outposts on the road who
belonged to the command Of General
Thomas, the destined hero of Chicka-
manga.
Thomas was as much in a fog about
the situation Of the Confederates as
was Bragg about the enemy he was

presence of host of men in gray who
had slipped across the creek while the
Federals were looking for them in an
other direction.
From the humblest private in the
ranks to the general in chief, both
armies were surprised to find how
many there were at that moment with
their eyes fixed on the roads leading
from Chickamauga's dark waters to
chattanooga. Thomas had opened the
battle Of Chickamauga. His troops
were on every road and byroad. The
Federal division or two of isolated
troops which Bragg expected would be
driven away by Forests cavalry and
the infantry corps which had crossed
with him turned out to be the left

short distance before he found the head of
the victim of the accident. Shortly after
ward the body found where it had

from the ira cks to the roadway below had
fractured the legs in several places and
otherwise bruised the body. The dead
wagon was summoned after the police were
notified of the fatal accident and the re-
mains were removed to the morgue.
