HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE OHIO,
July 30, 1864-8 p. m.
Major-General SHERMAN:
The enemy has shown more force than usual in his main works in my front to-day, and has been erecting a battery a short distance in front of his old works on the railroad brigade, where I pressed him closely on the 28th. Colonel Garrard reports no movement on our left, except a small body of cavalry, which he drove from Decatur this morning.
J. M. SCHOFIELD,
Major-General.
