Annotation

[1] ALS, RPB. On June 4, the Ninth Corps was sent to reinforce Grant at Vicksburg, and after Vicksburg the corps took part in the campaign against Jackson, Mississippi. Halleck notified Burnside, 11:20 A.M., July 25, that ``whether the Ninth Corps will be returned to your department or sent to General Rosecrans will depend upon the enemy's movements.'' (OR, I, XXIII, II, 558). On July 31, Grant ordered the corps returned to its former command at Cincinnati.
