CHAPTER XXIII.
CAMPAIGN OF THE CAROLINAS.
FEBRUARY AND MARCH, 1865.
On the 1st day of February, as before explained, the army designed for the active campaign from Savannah northward was composed of two wings, commanded respectively by Major-Generals Howard and Slocum, and was substantially the same that had marched from Atlanta to Savannah.

The same general orders were in force, and this campaign may properly be classed as a continuance of the former.
The right wing, less Corse's division, Fifteenth Corps, was grouped at or near Pocotaligo, South Carolina, with its wagons filled with food, ammunition, and forage, all ready to start, and only waiting for the left wing, which was detained by the flood in the Savannah River.

It was composed as follows: Fifteenth Corps, Major-General JOHN A.LOGAN.
First Division, Brigadier-General Charles R.Woods; Second Division, Major-General W.B.Hazen; Third Division, Brigadier-General John E.Smith; Fourth Division, Brigadier-General John M.Corse.
Artillery brigade, eighteen guns, Lieutenant-Colonel W.H.Ross, First Michigan Artillery.
Seventeenth.

Corps, Major-General FRANK P.BLAIR, JR.
First Division, Major-General Joseph A.

Mower; Second Division, Brigadier-General M.F.
