Fifty years ago today Gen. w. T. Sher-
mans great expeditionary force OF 5000
men, which had marched out OF Vicks-
burg on February 3 for the purpose OF
destroying Confederate railroads and pub
lie property in the interior Of Mississippi,
passed through the town Of Hillsboro, en-
route to Meridian, a railroad junction.
which was the objective point Of the
march.
The scenes attending the raid-for the
march was q raid on grand scale-had
proven thus far Of extraordinary interest
to the soldiers
The two columns of the expedition-one
from the Sixteenth Army Corps, under
Gen. Stephen A. Hurlbut. and one from
the Seventeenth Corps, under Cen James

hours work, with the Tenth Missouri
Cavalry serving as a guard, had them
again spanning the stream and the bridge
ready for the use Of the marching
columns
Early on February the columns had
begun crossing the bridge. The weather
was fine and the Federal soldiers in
high spirits. They noticed that the coun-
try was good. and had been fruitful when
cultivated. There were fewer gaunt and
windowless houses than between Jackson
and Vicksburg. 'Lincoln's vandals,' as
the inhabitants termed the soldiers, had
not yet passed that way. Some Of the
fences We're new, as IL the farmers had
hope OF the future. On a few plantations
spring blowing was in progress.
The road was good, and by noon on
February the town Of Brandon, the
county seat of Rankin County, vas
reached by the head of the column The
troops marched through the town and
halted in its outskirts. one regiment be-
ing posted in the streets to act-as pro-
vost guard.
The soldiers had not long been on their
beats when a venerable appearing and
mild hammered old gentleman on a blood
ed horse rode up TO a cavalry camp that
had been pitched in the yard of one OF
the chief buildings, used as a seminary
and church.
A cavalryman at once put his hand on
the horses bride. Two others came up,
and all three disputed as to which should
have the horse. One Of the soldiers set

ary 5, and had remained there over Feb
ruary 6.
The town presented a ruined and mis-
erable appearance. Most of its public
buildings had already been burned. and
when the Federals arrived others and
few dwellings fired by negroes had been
destroyed.
The State House seemed to have been
the only large building in the place that
had escaped the torch When Sherman
had marched out TO jackson from Vicks-
burg, after the fall of that place in July,
1865, some of his officers had occupied its
rooms for a few days while commanding
in the town 1t was now bare Of furni-
ture and desolate.
While in jackson the troops had not
wanted for fuel with which TO boil their
evening coffee. Fence rails and even
weather boards from the corners of
houses supplied it. They foraged right
and left, bringing in turkeys, hams and
Chickens, calves, pigs and other stock
from the meager store of the inhabitants.
This they did in rolicking spirits, JUS
tifying their acts by the demands of mil
itary necessity, for Sherman's troops
were living largely Off the country, hay-
ing brought few wagons on the march.
