| Further from Tennessee -- the Yankee accounts of Hood's
Losses |
| The Nashville Dispatch says: |
| ***** A rebel captain states that Hood,
previous to the battle, was so sanguine of having everything just as
he desired it, that he was preparing to run cars between here and Franklin. He had two cars pulled by oxen across the country from the
Chattanooga road to the Tennessee & Alabama road, and was fixing
to draw the locomotive over by the same plan, when the fight began and
spoiled his plans. He had also two other captured cars and
locomotives, with which he intended to run his line of railroad
travel. All these cars and locomotives have fallen into our hands. |
