For Vicksburg, Mississippi.
With the 20th of December came an order for the brigade to proceed to Vicksburg, where it arrived on the 2nd of January, 1863.

On the 21st of May, the march was continued through the Sunflower country to the stream of that name.
Early on the 23d, a crossing was effected, yet but nine miles were made that day, by reason of the wretched condition of the road.
The Yazoo was reached on the 24th, and crossed the same day near Greenwood, between Fort Pemberton and certain obstructions sunk in the Yazoo.
These obstruction
