To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The army was poorly equipped for a giege of such immense labor. It was much worn by the hardships and privations of the march, and had suffered heavily by battles and sick- ness. I^arge re-enforcements were needed to invest the place, and to fortify their own lines against sorties. Generals Huelbut and Pren- tiss wereoi'dered to strip Grant's department to send forward "every available man that could possibly be spared." And naw Gen. Grant, whose great strategy in marching away from Vicksburg a...nd Pembeeton's army to Jackson was to finally extinguish all inter- ference from the eSst, began to sound the alarm that Johnston was threatening him in the rear, which he kept up to the end of the siege. Admiral* Portee sent "a brigade of am- phibious and useful troops at his disposal, known as the Marine Brigade, to debark at Haine's Bluff, and hold the place until re- lieved by other forces." A division from Huelbut, under Brig. Gen. Kimball arrived 'June 3. On the 8th Brig. Gen. SooY Smith arrived with a division, and was placed at Haine's Bluff.
