With the Valley practically given up by Early, Sheridan was anxious to stop here. He wrote to Grant, I think the best policy will be to let the burning of the crops in the Valley be the end of the campaign, and let some of this army go somewhere else. He had the Petersburg line in mind. Grant's consent to this plan reached him on October 5th, and the following day he started on his return march down the Shenandoah.

Corse that brought forth Sherman's famous message, Hold out; relief is coming, sent by his signal officers from the heights of Kenesaw Mountain, and which thrilled the North and inspired its poets to eulogize Corse's bravery in verse. Corse had been ordered from Rome to Allatoona by signals from mountain to mountain, over the heads of the Confederate troops, who occupied the valley between. Reaching the mountain pass soon after midnight, on October 5th, Corse added his thousand men to the nine hundred already there, and soon after daylight the battle began.
