Major-Ge7ieral Thomas, Fourteenth Army Corps. '^ On that day the great battle may be said to have commenced, and I quote the above for the purpose of showing that leading officers of the Federal forces entered on it in the full assurance of a great suc- cess and with a determination and expectation of "using up" the rebel army. In proportion to the confidence felt in their ability to win must have been the revulsion of feeling and demoralization on the night of the 20th, when they found that th...ey had been beaten at all points and that they must leave the field in possession of those very rebels whom the sanguine Cruft had declared could be driven '^ ad infinitum,'" and Thomas believed could be easily " used up " The question then arises why the fruits of so grand a victory were not gathered in on that night or on the succeeding day ? General Bragg was in consultation with General Longstreet at early dawn of the morning of the 21st at the latter's bivouac. Gen- eral Longstreet urged a movement across the river in the rear of Rosecrans, to the pushing on to Nashville, and, after drawing Rose- crans out of Chattanooga, seek an opportunity to crush him ; but go on to Nashville and Louisville.
