OCTOBER 20, 1864.
Lieutenant-General
TAYLOR,
Mobile:
I will move
to-morrow for Guntersville, on the Tennessee. Please place all the garrison you
can at Corinth, and have the railroad iron from there to Memphis taken up as
close as possible to Memphis. I have not yet seen General Beauregard. Give me
all the assistance you can to get my supplies to Tuscumbia.
J. B. HOOD,
General.
