It numbers, as we have said, nearly five hundred men, but Forrest knows personally Hawkins, whom he has already taken prisoner in December, 1862, and he knows that it requires but little to intimidate him. Hence he sends against him but one detachment of less than six hundred men, under Colonel Duckworth. While the main body of the column continues i
