Branchville
February 4, 1865
 
Major-General Wheeler
 
   I go to Charleston to-night. Keep me fully advised of the movements of the enemy. I have said the {South Carolina} railroad could be kept open all to-morrow. If movements of enemy cause you to think otherwise, communicate promptly with all railroad stations. Drive all cattle before you that is possible. Establish a courier line to Blackville.
W. J. Hardee
Lieutenant-General
