Maj. Gen. Howell Cobb
Lovejoy's, Ga.
 
   Should Sherman advance on the Augusta {Georgia RR}, Macon {Macon & Western RR}, or {Atlanta &} West Point railroad it is very important that the road should be taken up in his front, or if time should not permit this it should be destroyed. If you have information of a probability of his advancing on any of these roads have the iron taken up immediately.
J. B. Hood
General
