SPECIAL
HEADQUARTERS FOURTH DIVISION, FIELD ORDERS,
FIFTEENTH ARMY CORPS, Numbers 11.
In the Field, Hillsborough, GA., November 21, 1864.

I. This command will move to-morrow, the 22nd instant, as follows:

The pontoon train will move at 6 a. m. ; the First Brigade has the advance, and will move at 6. 30 a. m. ; the Third Brigade will march in the center, and move at 7 a. m. ; the Second Brigade will bring up the rear, and will follow close on the Third Brigade. The pioneer corps will move in the rear of the advance regiment, and repair the roads and build bridges, that the trains may be delayed as little as possible. The trains will move closed up--first, the pioneer corps train; then the brigade trains in their respective order of march; followed by the ordnance, supply, and, last, the ambulance train. As we are near a large rebel cavalry force it is important that the utmost vigilance be shown by the different brigade commanders; men and trains should be kept well in hand. In case of an attack the general commanding should be at once informed. The practice of shooting without orders is forbidden, and brigade commanders will promulgate an order, to be read to their respective commands to-morrow morning before marching, that the firing of muskets without orders must cease, and will have the violators of such orders severely punished. Attention is also called to Special Orders, Numbers 172, paragraph II, from department headquarters, and to Special Orders, Numbers 177, paragraph I, corps headquarters.

By order of Brigadier General John M. Corse:
