ton, Tenn. The caemy vrrrr uu tLo opp )eite side
of the river, tbrte luigaUi..^ stryng. Vt'heeicr had
a new read out abcut a mile below the lord, (yrosaed
the river at uigbt by this u«w ford wilU W'harton’e
division, attacked tu« enemy’d pickets at the main
ford, secured tLat point and crossed Martin’s and
Davidsou’s divisions with tfee artillery and ord-
nanco wagons. '
Wo marched all night and the next day until
dark, in the heaviest rain I ever had aeen, and
camped in Sequatchie Valley. H«re the 00m-
mand waa divided. Wheeler, with two brigades,
ono under Gen. Martin, and one under CoL Avery,
went down the valley after a large wagon train,
while Gen. Wharton with the remaindier of the
force proceeded directly across the Cumberland
Mountain to attack McMinnville. Gen. Wheeler
started at 8 A. M., and met the train near Dun
lap at the foot of the mountain, and after some
sharp fighting captured about .500 prisoners and
over 500 wagons heavily loaded with quarter
master, couimitiaury, ordnance and sutler’s stores.
Th« train was captured ab ut 11 A. M. The
wagOEfl were all bifrued, about l,5uO mules killed,
anil the re.st of the mulea taken back over the
mountain. The stores destroyed were most valuable.
The amount of clothing and blankets was enor
mous, while sixty wagons of ordnance stores were
destroyed. About 4 P.M. the enemy were re
ported advancing up the valley. This found our
fjommand in bad copditiou I’or fighting. Over
half of both brigades had been sent back by Gen.
W’^heeler with led mules, and nearly a third of tho
rest were on picket in the rear and on the flanks.
Col. Russel, of Martin’s command, was captured,
at the wagons. Col. Avery, with 100 of hie bri
gade, remained in the rear, while Gen. Wheeler
retired with tho rest of the force to orosa the
mountain. Theenemy pressed vigorously. They
charged fifteen times in the oourie of a mile, kill
ing, wounding and capturing about one halt of the
rear guard. Their force was so overwhelming e*ch
rcpuUe was but temporary. About 0 P. M. ouj
entire torce was up tho mountain, marched until
3 in the morning, resumed the march at daylight,
and caniped at the opposite foot of the mountain
about mid-day.
Gen. Wharton, v-ith hie force, crosieJ the
mouutain, and his advance guard, under Lieut.
Col. Cky, attacked the ensmy’s pickets at Mo-
Mlnavilio about 11 A. M., of the 8d, drove them

^Vitb the command in tais scattered e\tu:ition,
Gen. Davidson’s divi-^ion was vigorously -^Uaclied
by tho enemy early in the morning and pushed
back on the Shelbyville and Lewisburg pike..
One brigade of his was driven back in disorder.
There was now a race by Wheeler, with Martin
and Wharton’s divisions, for this pike, to strike
it at Farmington >)efore Davidson was pre«^ed to
that piolul Col. Montgomery, commanding Scott b
brigade in Davidson’s division, was woun-ded,
while Major McDonald was killed.
Gen. Martin’s divi.sion arrived just in time ana
was thrown into position on the I'lke, where the
road strikes the Pike, :.nd the re.st ot the com
mand had to march into the Dike under tbe fire
of t.v»o rji.tsmy. This was Gen Wheeler’s order.
Here a fierce figlit cnsncd. Our loss at this point
must have been" 1 .')0 men. I’he enemy were fi
nally checked. We marched during the night to
Comersville, and through Pulaski to tiugar Creek
the next day, where we camped. At this point
the 2d Georgia, a battalion of Morgan’s men, re
mained as a rear guard, wliile the command pro
ceeded through ilogersville and crosscd the tea-
nessee, at Muscle Shoals. Tho crossing was safe
ly accomplished, but the rear guard was charged
by a heavv force, broken and Kcattercd, thirty men
from the 2d Georgia, and several officers and about
forty men from the battalion of Morgan’s men,
captured.
We are now on the South side of the Tennes

I have tiius given you a brief, unembellished,
dry account of tho raid. I have not time to give
you fuller particulars. In the \^umber of men en-
g®'ed this is the gres.tcst raid of the war. It is
not .the greatest in fruits. Many mistakes
have been'’ made ia its management. It is not
prudent at this time to say more.
