September 1864 CE
Sherman sends another division, under Brigadier General James D. Morgan, to Chattanooga.
Sherman has had some advance notice of the nature of Hood's proposed campaign.
In a series of speeches given at stops along his way back to Richmond, President Davis had rallied his listeners by predicting success for Hood, speeches that are reported in the press and read avidly by Sherman.
