The sick and wounded were all moved today from the division
hospital to Marietta. This could safely be done, now that the rebels have
fallen back across the river. Marietta is not likely to be within the lines of
a fierce battle, in case the rebels should come around on either flank of our
army. It is very quiet all along the lines today.
