Report of Brig. Gen. Milo S. Hascall, U. S. Army.
Hdqrs. Fifteenth Brigade, Army of the Ohio, Field of Shiloh, April 12, 1862.
Agreeably to the order of General Wood, I proceeded on the morning of the 4th instant from our camp, 23 miles beyond Waynesborough and about 60 miles from this place, with two regiments of my brigade, to wit, the Twenty-sixth Ohio and the Seventeenth Indiana, together with a detachment of about 600 of the Third Ohio Cavalry, under Lieutenant-Colonel Murray, of that regiment, and marched for Lawrenceburg.
The general had been informed that about 500 of the enemy's cavalry were at that point, with the intention of making a descent upon our train after the troops had passed.
My instructions were to proceed cautiously to Lawrenceburg, a distance of about 14 miles from our camp, and capture the enemy, if possible, and to disperse him at all events.
It happened that the day was very rainy and exceedingly

headquarters Fifth Division, Tuesday, April 8, 1862.
Sir: With the cavalry placed at my command and two brigades of my fatigue troops I went this morning out on the Corinth road.
One after another of the abandoned camps of the enemy lined the roads, with hospital flags for their protection.
At all we found more or less wounded and dead.
At the forks of the road I found the head of General Wood's division.
At that point I ordered cavalry to examine both roads, and found the enemy's cavalry.
Colonel Dickey, of the Illinois cavalry, asking for re-enforcements, I ordered General Wood to advance the head of his column cautiously on the left-hand road, whilst I conducted the head of the Third Brigade of the Fifth Division up the right-hand road.
About half a mile from the forks was

Report of Thomas Harrison, Texas Rangers (unattached).
camp, near Corinth, April 11, 1862.
[Colonel:] I have to report that, being left by you in command of the Texas Rangers, 220 strong, on the morning of Tuesday last, I remained in the rear of our retiring army until the evening of that day, when information was brought me by a member of Colonel Forrest's cavalry that a small body of the enemy's cavalry had appeared on our right flank.
I immediately proceeded with my command, accompanied by a company (about 40 men) of Colonel Forrest's cavalry, to the point occupied by the enemy, and finding him apparently in considerable force, and having formed my command in line of battle to his front, I made a personal reconnaissance of his lines.
This revealed his cavalry, about 300 strong, with a line of infantry in its rear, the extent of which I could not determine, owing to a dense brush-wood in which the latter was pl
