On page 195, same book, General Sherman dispatched General Hal- leck, Sept. 12th : " I do not think I need, at this time, cavalry horses in undue proportion. I have lost faith in cavalry raids. Independent columns of cavalry might operate by a circuit from one army to another, and destroy the enemy's cavalry, which is more to be feared by us than their infantry. As soon as General Grant determines for me the next
( 71)
move on the chess-board, I will estimate the number I will want, and, in the meantime, would not ask more than a fair proportion for re- mount. Wheeler might have been utterly destroyed, if we had had more cavalry, but that is now too late."
Notwithstanding the number of troops sent to the rear, and detained in his rear to protect the Federal line of communication, we find, on page 130, Sherman's Memoirs, the following : "The Rebel General Wheeler is still in Middle Tennessee, threatening our railroads. To prepare for this, or any other emergency, I ordered Newton's Division of the Fourth Corps back to Chattanooga, and Corse's Division of the Seventeenth Corps to Rome, and instructed General Rousseau, at Nashville, Granger, at Decatur, and Steadman, at Chattanooga, to adopt the most active measures to protect and insure the safety of our roads."
Assuming that these divisions were equal to the other divisions of the corps to which they belonged, this detachment, alone, would be 13,- 286 men.
Newton's Division had 6,199 men present and 13,037 on the rolls. Corse's Division had 7,087 present and 14,286 on the rolls.
And yet, notwithstanding all this, Sherman quotes (page 152 of his Memoirs) the following dispatch to General Grant : " It will be a phys- ical impossibility to protect the roads now, that Hood, Forrest and Wheeler, and the whole batch of devils, are turned loose."
The above citations throw some light upon the character of the ser- vice of the cavalry and the way it was regarded by Federal command- ers. We have said this much in explanation of engagements where cavalry fought unaided by infantry.
The list designated as battles fought by cavalry and infantry, in which the cavalry was under my command, need but little comment.
They are probably as correct as circumstances would permit. Some are very nearly, if not quite, correct, while others are, no doubt, esti- mates, and need comparison with other accounts, but all give an idea of the work performed and the extent and severity of the several en- gagements.
At Murfreesboro, our cavalry fought on the left, where the enemy was defeated and broken up, and where most of the prisoners were captured. Also, during the four days of the battle, we captured many prisoners in the enemy's rear.
At Perryville, our cavalry did very severe fighting, capturing nearly
(72)
all the prisoners which were taken. On the left we charged over both cavalry and infantry, capturing a battery.
At Chickamauga, we broke through the enemy on the left, pressing to their rear, and capturing largely of prisoners, and the next day we captured nearly a brigade of Federal cavalry.
At siege of Knoxville, I suppose the prisoners captured south of the river are included.
Resaca includes cavalry prisoners captured and fights approaching the place, and the severe fight on the right on the morning of May 13th.
Kennesaw includes the cavalry fights incident thereto and the severe fight on the morning of June 27th.
Siege of Atlanta includes several days' engagements.
There are many fights where our statement of loss must be regarded as merely an estimate.
As it was very important to keep informed of the enemy's strength, I always kept a tabulated statement of the organization of the army which opposed us, which I constantly corrected by information ob- tained from prisoners, scouts, spies and other sources.
. We also obtained, by the same means, information regarding Fed- eral losses, and our estimates of the Federal killed and wounded are often based upon such information ; of course, also corrected by our personal observation. When a line charged our works, and were re- pulsed, we could, of course, form some idea of the cost to them of such a movement. For instance, on the evening of May 27, 1864, How- ard's Corps attempted to turn General Johnston's right. Their cav- alry first made a sharp dash at us, which we repulsed and drove back upon their main line, which was forming to advance and envelope our right. The discovery gave time to fell trees and make breast works just in rear of a ravine they would cross in approaching us. Their first assault was repulsed, and, as the second was about to be com- menced, I was reinforced by Granberry's, and, afterward, by Govan's, and, finally, by Lowry's brigades, and for an hour the fight was as warm as is often experienced. From the nature of the attack, I judged the Federal loss could not be less than 3,000 or 4,000: so reported that night to General Johnston, and have never had reason to change my opinion, and I state it at 3,600. The warm part of the battle did not last over an hour, and the loss of my cavalry was 350, and that of the infantry which assisted was 448.
(73)
At McLemore's Cove, Sept. 17, 1863, we captured 100 prisoners, and, from the nature of the fight, must have killed and wounded as · many more.
On May 17, 1864, we had six good fights with Sherman's advance, all our positions being behind favorably posted works, and, at our last position just before dark, we were reinforced by a brigade of infantry. The fights really amounted to battles, and we put Sherman's loss at 480-four times ours Van Horne's History, page 71, describes the affairs in a manner which convinces us we are under, rather than over, in our estimate.
On July 3, 1864, we warmly engaged the enemy's vigorous advance, and, besides capturing over 100 prisoners, we fusiladed and cannonaded from our several positions, often at very close range, in a manner which certainly justified our estimate of the Federal loss.
On June 20th, we drove the enemy's cavalry for some three miles, captured a large squadron, and inflicted a loss which could hardly be less than our estimate
On July 17th, we had several fights, captured a number of prison- ers, and felt that we could not estimate entire loss of troops opposing · us at less than 220.
At Elk River, the fighting was very severe, and the enemy were held back by log-works and by an attack with two regiments with which I charged their flank.
Page 119 of Appleton's Annual Cyclopedia for 1863 says: "Gen- eral Thomas moved rapidly to strike the enemy. The resistance of General Wheeler was so stubborn, that General Negley was delayed until the trains of the enemy had crossed Elk River. They crossed their reserve artillery, consisting of 26 pieces "
I have tried to put down the regiments engaged, and have done it as accurately as I could and with what data I have, but, no doubt, have made many mistakes, and I hope any errors will be corrected by others.
With great respect, your friend and servant,
Jos WHEELER.
