[NASHVILLE, 12th, February 1864]
MAJOR-GENERAL J. M. SCHOFIELD,
Knoxville, Tenn. :
You need not attempt the raid with the cavalry you now have. If that in Kentucky can recruit up it may do hereafter to send it on such an expedition. I have asked so often for a cooperative movement from the troops in West Virginia that I hardly expect to see anything to help us from there. General Halleck says they have not got men enough. Crook, however, has gone there, and may undertake to strike the road about New River.
