CHARLESTON,
December 15, 1864.
Col. JOHN B. SALE, Military Secretary, Richmond:
My services not
being longer needed in this department I shall leave this evening for
Wilmington and resume my command. Sherman has opened communication with his new
base by the Ogeechee. The means to meet him do not exceed one-half the estimate
in yours of the 7th instant. Notify Mrs. B. of my return, and wish for her and
Major Cuthbert to join me in Wilmington, the latter temporarily.
BRAXTON BRAGG.
