This gave him the two divisions under A. J. Smith, then in Missouri, but en route for Tennessee, the two corps named, and all the garrisons in Tennessee, as also all the cavalry of my military division, except one division under Brigadier-General Kilpatrick, which was ordered to rendezvous at Marietta. Brevet Major-General Wilson had arrived from the army of the Potomac, to assume command of the cavalry of my army, and I dispatched him back to Nashville with all dismounted detachments, and orders as rapidly as possible to collect the cavalry serving in Kentucky and Tennessee, to mount, organize, and equip them, and report to Major-General Thomas for duty. These forces I judged would enable General Thomas to defend the railroad from Chattanooga back, including Nashville and Decatur, and give him an army wi

I had anticipated and was then making. Night came on, and my troops slept on the field. Both Anderson's and Toombs's brigades suffered severely in the action. In the former brigade of five regiments, but one field officer was untouched. Colonel Wilson, of the Seventh Georgia, the gray-haired hero of many fights, fell, mortally wounded. Officers and men never behaved better than did mine on that day. On the morning of the thirty-first, I took up line of march in the direction of Sudley Forounded seven, and captured forty-three, including the Lieutenant-Colonel of the Fourth New York regiment, a Major, three Captains, and four Lieutenants. We also captured fourteen cavalry horses with some few sabres, carbines, and pistols. Lieutenant Wilson and privates Saunders and Everett, of company A, were badly wounded by guns fired from the windows of the houses. The Louisiana brigade came up to our support, and succeeded in capturing several trains of cars. The next day I was engage

A very heavy rain fell all day on the seventh, which greatly impeded the movement of the rear of the column, making the road almost impassable for troops, trains, or artillery. The storm did not reach the head of the column. In passing the troops from Natchitoches to Pleasant Hill, I endeavored as much as possible to accelerate their movements. The enemy offered no opposition to their march on the sixth. On the seventh the advance drove a small force to Pleasant Hill, and from there to Wilson's farm, three miles beyond, where a sharp fight occurred with the enemy posted in a very strong position, from which they were driven with serious loss, and pursued to St. Patrick's Bayou, near Carroll's Mill, about nine miles from Pleasant Hill, where our forces bivouacked for the night. We sustained in this action a loss of fourteen men killed, thirty-nine wounded, and nine missing. We captured many prisoners, and the enemy sustained severe losses in killed and wounded.
