The National Flag of the United
States.
Our flag is oblong. It has one cor
ner of white stars on a blue field. The
rest of the flag has red and white
stripes going across.
There are seven red stripes and six
white stripes. That is thirteen,
you know why? Because there used
to be just thirteen colonies here in
stead of forty-eight large states. And
there are forty-eight stars. They are
put in rows of eight each and repre
sent the states.

short battle was fought. Johnston re
treated to Kennesaw Mountain and
fortified this place. This was the
strongest fortification the Confedcr
ates had yet had. Sherman tried .to
take the mountain, but his attacks
were repulsed with great slaughter.
Sherman moved around the mountain
to the side where the railroad over
which the Confederate supplies came
and Johnston knew if his supplies
were cut off he would have to sur
render his army, so he retreated to
Atlanta. He had kept Sherman seven
ty days on the march to Atlanta, which
was only one hundred i miles. The
siege of Atlanta began July 3, 1864,
and lasted forty days. Tho federal
bombs and shells bursting almost de
stroyed the city, and the people were
too terrified to get out of their houses.
While at Atlanta Johnston was re
moved from his command and General
John B. Hood placed in command.
When Johnston received the telegram
telling him of the change, he said it
was useless to fight when overpow
ered. When Hood took command he
rallied forth to attack the enemey.
Ia three battles he lost eight thousand
men. At lest the federals gained cen
tra) of Atlanta September 4, 1864. A
battle was fought at Jonesboro, a
small town on Hie railroad heading
from Atlanta to Macon. Over this
road the Confederate! got their sup
plies. When the federals got control
of this raiirotd the Confederates left
Atlanta and went to Newnan, Ga.
From Newnan, Hood retreated into
Tennessee, threatenng Sherman’s
supplies, and in this way make him
leave Georgia. After the Confeder
ates left Atlanta, Sherman wanted the
people to leave as he wanted to make
the city a pure military garrison with
no civil population to influence it.
petition from the mayor and council
was ignored. After the people left
Atlanta the federal! applied the torch
and destroyed whit cannon and shell
had left.
Sherman apread his army out forty
miles wide. He destroyed everything
in his path. Ilia soldiers ate the beef
and sheep and srhat they did not take
for their ration, they destroyed. They
burned houses, barns and fences. They
too tore the railroads up by burning
the cross ties and heating the iron
rails aad then beading them around
trees so that they would be no more
good for railroads. Sherman went by
y of Mllledgeville, then the capital
of the state. This city was unguarded
and the state legislature was in ses
sion. Whan told the federals were
coming the legislature adjourned and
the people were so terrified that they
paid fabulous prices for horses and
vehicles in order to escape.
The outgoing trains wtrs loaded
with people. Governor Brown, desir
ing to savt as much of the state’s
property and papers as possible, asked
men to volunteer to go to the capitol
building and get some of the papers
and property, but they wouldn't, so
he offered oerdon to the convipte if
they would go and get the papers,
which they did, and in thia way the
lapera were saved. Just as the last
:ralnload of people went out of one
side of the town the federals came ia
on tho other side.
Sherman went en to Savannah and
demanded teh surrender of the city,
but General Hardee, who commanded
the city, would not surrender. He
held the city two days, and on the
