If we keep south we shall strike the railway, and that will take us to Mount Pleasant.

After that the road goes on to Florence on the Tennessee River.

The only place that I know of on the road is Lawrenceburg.

That is about forty miles from here, and I have heard that the Yankees are on the line from there right and left.

I believe our troops are at Florence; but I am not sure about that, because both parties are constantly shifting their position, and I hear very little, as you may suppose, of what is being done.
