E. D. TOWNSEND,

Assistant Adjutant-General.

PULASKI, TENN., November 17, 1864.

Major-General THOMAS,

Nashville:

The roads are so bad between this place and General Hatch's position that it is not practicable to send him forage from here. He says he can get forage in the country, if he has the necessary teams to haul it. I have, therefore, authorized him to retain some teams belonging to this post which have gone to him with rations. I recommend that no more forage be sent here from Nashville for the present.

J. M. SCHOFIELD,

Major-General.
