The Daily Dispatch: January 2, 1862., [Electronic resource], article 21 (search)
nce Guard, C. A.,Ky., Care City, Dec. 19, 1861. Sir: --At 8 o'clock, A. M., on the 17th inst., I moved towards Woodsonville for the purpose of breaking up the railroad from the vicinity of that place Southward. My force consisted of 1,100 infantry and four pieces of artillery. When within two and a half miles of Woodsonville, concealed from the enemy's view, I halted the column and ordered forward Colonel Terry's Rangers, to occupy the heights of my right, left and front; and Major Phifer's cavalry to watch the crossings of Green River still further to my left. These orders having been executed, and no force of the enemy or pickets seen, I advanced the column till the right reached the railroad. This brought me within three quarters of a mile of the river and the enemy, but still concealed, except a small body of cavalry upon the extreme left. Here a company of rangers was detached to observe the enemy from Rowlett's Knob, which was to my right, across the railroad.
