NP, RD 1/6/1865

From the Richmond Dispatch
 
January 6, 1865
 
The Georgia railroad
   The track of this road not as badly damaged as at first reported. From Stone Mountain {8 miles} to Lithonia the road is in good running order, (says the Augusta Chronicle,) with the exception of one mile, which General Slocum's destroyed, after leaving the main army, in route for the east side of Yellow river. From to Alcova bridge {between Covington and Social Circle} the road is completely. From the Alcova down to Oconee {about 40 miles} it is tapped occasionally, and can be easily repaired.
