On the other hand Sheridan cared
comparatively little for the railroad and

Early should hold the railroad or al

Union victory more probable.

There was a deep design in these 10
days of skirmishing, for it kept Early
at a distance of six miles from Sheri-
dan, with our outlying parties in close
touch with the enemy. This prevented
Early from knowing what was going
on in the Union lines, and gave room
for Sheridan to manuver for the blow
he intended to deliver.
1t was quite the reverse of what had
been too often the case in that region,
where the Union troops were kept
closely within their lines and the Con-
federates pushed their Skirmishers up

the secretary to appeal to this
