CONTENT DESCRIPTION
AbstractLetter from Nathanael Greene to Moore Furman. Smith's Tavern - Acknowledging favor of 12th inst. Inconvenience of not knowing what the next movement will be. Even the General, although acting on the defensive, cannot determine this point, for it all depends on the enemy's movements. Wants pasture for horses provided along the route from Middlebrook. Herculean task on their hands. Afraid good news from the South will turn out to be false.
