General Chalmers, with Bragg's advance, reached Munfordville at daylight on the 14th and learned that Colonel Scott, wi head of his column being opposed by cavalry. Bragg, hearing of Chalmers's attack and of Buell's movements, ordered his entire army, which had rested two days at Glasgow, to start early on the 15th en route for Munfordville.
