Annotation

[1] OR, I, VII, 926. Halleck replied on January 6, ``. . . I immediately communicated with Genl Buel and have since sent him all the information I could obtain of the enemy's movements about Columbus and Camp Beauregard. No considerable force has been sent from those places to Bowling Green. They have about 22,000 men at Columbus. . . . I have at Cairo, Fort Holt & Paducah only about 15,000. . . . I cannot. . . withdraw any from Missouri. . . .'' (DLC-RTL).
