General J. A. WHARTON:
The dispatch for General Wheeler to concentrate was that General Morgan might relieve you and allow your whole command to move round to our front. General Wheeler not yet arrived. Hurry the movement, as we have reports of the enemys advance.
Have they moved back from Readyville?
