1862 October 22 between Crab Orchard and Stanford, Ky.

[from the diary of Captain William F. Hunter, Co. B., 97th Ohio]



     Oct. 22d, ’62.
At sunrise, the di-
vision returned to
camp, & after about
an hour for break-

fast, we all moved
off on the same road
we came, & marched
rapidly until between
2 & 3 P.M., when we en-
camped about half
way between Crab – Or-
chard & Stanford. All
very tired. Our divi-
sion saw no rebels
when they were in
front of our old
camp.
