William S. Rosecrans to Arthur O. C. Ducat, November 13, 1862
HEADQUARTERS FOURTEENTH ARMY CORPS,
Nashville, November 13, 1862.
Major-General THOMAS, Gallatin:
Order Rousseau forward to Edgefield Junction, relieving all troops on the road, and clearing out all detachments to their commands. One brigade will be enough for Mitchellsville and Tyree. Not less than three regiments at Mitchellsville, on account of heavy fatigue; one regiment enough at Tyree. Direct the officer at Mitchellsville to lengthen out platform, so that 50 cars can be unloaded without delay. Leave one section of artillery at Tyree with regiment.
By command of Major-General Rosecrans:
ARTHUR O. C. DUCAT,
Tieutenant-Oolonel and Acting Oluef of Staff.
Tieutenant-Oolonel and Acting Oluef of Staff.
