| The Conductor 'Rogers'
complained of by Col. Furgerson is absent from here on duty. So soon
as he returns, I have ordered, that he report immediately to me. I do
not know what position his -- Rogers' train occupied in the number of
trains sent over that evening but before the -- 7 or 8 -- trains left
Corinth, I gave orders that the first trains leaving should go direct
to Memphis, and that the two rear trains should take suitable cars to
bring the battery at Grand Junction, and Capt. McDonald's at Gaulsburg.
I learn from the Supt. of Memphis & Charleston Road that my orders
were carried out. Capt McDonald's Battery arrived at Corinth the next
morning. |
