by the south. Southerners believed
that it would follow upon a victory

Sherman Gets a Free Hand.

Sherman especially had no lmmedi-
with his ambition. His field of COM
mand was the territory east OF the
Mississippi from Natchez to the Ohio
river. The Federal forces of the region
had been drawn upon to fight for the
defense of Chattanooga, and after the
battle these divisions were distributed
along the railroads feeding Chatta-
nooga. sTh0mas remained in command
of the victorious army at Chattanooga,
subject to the orders of Grant. who at
this time still held the rank of major
general.
Sherman's first move after Chatta-
nooga had been relieved was to march
to the aid of burnside, then besieged
at Knoxville. Tenn. by Longstreet's
Confederate corps. Longstreet didn't
stand for battle. but only withdrew
to a safe distance to wait for another
chance. Sherman wished to unite his
troops with Burnside's and give Long
street a drubbing which would send
him back to Virginia. whence be came.
but Burnside declined the offer. pre-
ferring to let well enough alone.
Meanwhile reports were coming In
from the west that trouble was brew
ing in "Uncle Billy's'' own baiIiwick
along the Mississippi. The C~onfeder-
ates still maintained troops in Missis-
sippi, and Forrest had broken loose on
his old warpath in west Tennessee and
was raiding the country under the,nose
of the Federal garrisons, carrying off
to his lair rich military stores, beef
cattle, wagons and conscripts.
Sherman wanted to use his troops
under Mcpherson and HurIburt at
vicksburg and Memphis and strike a
blow east of the Mississippi. Grant
told him to go ahead. From Nashville
he proceeded to Ohio to pass Christ
mas with his family and started down
