Dear Brother;
In great haste I drop you a line to say that we have received orders to go to Savannah to meet an attack which Gen. Beauregard apprehends at that point, and to suggest that you do not come up here as you expected. I give you the earliest notice of this movement, hoping it may be in time to stop you. We go by home in separate companies with orders to the several captains to take up the line of march from their respective court-houses for Savannah fifteen days from tomorrow morning. I like the movement very much. I shall send my horses home by Cary and go myself by Rail Road.
I expect to get to your house Thursday or Friday day or night, I don’t know which. When I see you I will explain all to you; at present I have not time. Most affectionately yours,
