sent back to Chattanooga Got an order to forage through the Country, which was quite unnecessary as the boys were already taking everything as we go. Our march was through a very fertile country at the foot of the Ridge, & forage plenty. On top of Taylors ridge our men had a fight on the 16" The 4" Corps ahead of us. 19" Got on the road at 8 A.M and made good time towards Rome (24 miles distant,) Passed the 4" Corps and halted near a neat little creek for dinner.
