Comte de Paris, History of the Civil War in America. Vol. 4. (ed. Henry Coppee , LL.D.), Book I:—eastern Tennessee. (search)
e 25th, beyond Steubenville, an ambush is skilfully laid; but a Federal detachment falls into it before the advent of Morgan: the noise produced by the fusillade between the two friendly bodies of soldiers warns him of the danger that he must avoid. At length, on the 26th of July, he is in the vicinity of Salineville, near the Pennsylvania line. Several regiments of infantry from that State, having come by the railway, at last succeed in halting the Confederates before the town, while Colonel Bristow and the Ninth Michigan regiment overtake the fugitives and charge them. Most of them surrender. Their force is dispersed. Morgan, with a few men, reaches Wellsville, and thence dashes suddenly to the northward in the direction of New Lisbon. General Shackelford pursues him vigorously, does not give him time to take his bearings, and, having caught up with him about two o'clock in the afternoon, runs him to the top of a steep knoll which offers no means of escape for the fugitives.
