Headquarters
Second Mass. Inf'y,
Near Savannah, January 8,1865.
We are liable to move very soon; rations are coming up pretty fast, and
clothing has been issued to most of the army. Everyone anticipates hard
fighting before we strike another base; it seems most probable that Lee will
come out of Richmond and give us a fight before he will allow us to take up a
position immediately threatening his communications.
