Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States: Commandery of the District of Columbia; War Papers During the winter of 1862-3, and spring of the latter year, Ward´s Brigade, as it was then known-composed of the 70th Indiana, 79th Ohio, 102d, 105th and 129th Illinois Volunteer Infantry-was encamped along the line of the Louisville and Nashville railroad with headquarters at Gallatin, Sumner county, twenty-eight miles north of Nashville. General E. A. Paine of Illinois, commanding the district of country lying along the south line of Kentucky, from the point where the Cumberland river leaves that State to where it again enters it, also had his headquarters at that place. General Crook, with a division, was at Carthage, farther up the Cumberland, and such of his supplies as were not obtainable in his vicinity were forwarded to him from Gallatin, the river being a very uncertain route, owing to liability of trouble from guerrillas, as well as from raiding parties from the organized forces of rebels at McMinnville and its vicinity. Two companies (Johnson´s and Lawson´s) of the nth Kentucky Cavalry, were also at Gallatin, the only troops of that arm with the brigade. The country swarmed with guerrillas; smugglers and underground mail carriers had regular routes across it; and score - hundreds - of rebel soldiers, shunning further service, or stealing home to steal remounts when they arrived there, sought shelter in the hills of eastern Sumner and Macon counties, and raided the railroad at every opportunity.
