The Daily Dispatch: March 24, 1862., [Electronic resource], From Savannah. (search)
Movements of the enemy in Tennessee--a hand-to-hand fight. [Special Dispatch to the Richmond Dispatch.] Murfreesboro', Tenn., March 22. The Federal army is marching towards Columbus, Tenn. Small parties of the enemy occasionally show themselves near our lines. On the night of the 20th instant, a hand-to-hand fight took place in the neighborhood of Murfreesboro', between twelve Federal and one Confederate soldier. The Confederate killed nine and wounded three, and was himself slightly wounded in several places. The name of the man who performed this remarkable feat is O. Welts. J. H. J. [The foregoing dispatch looks like a Mechansenism. We give it as it was received, with the remark that a regiment of men like "O. Wells" would be more terrible than the whole of Lincoln's "grand army."]
