MAJOR: Our animals are generally shod. One hundred and seventy wagons for the First Division (Wood's) are at Murfreesborough for supplies. Wood cannot move without them. They will probably return to-morrow. We have but three days' short forage. Minty's cavalry have stripped us. The monthly estimates for clothing and quartermaster's stores for First and Second Divisions are still at Nashville awaiting shipment.
