Dec. 11th, ’62.
At 5 A.M. this
morning ordered to
march at 6 ½;
aborted at that
time, marched over
to the Murfreesboro
pike, & out it a-
bout 8 or 9 miles,
skirmishing with
the enemy near 3
hours; started
back about 5 P.M.
& arrived in Camp
at 8 ½.
Reported that we
fired into our
men taken at Harts-
ville, & returning
from Murfreesville
where they were pa-
roled.
We were said to be
within three miles of
Lavergne; at which place
it’s reported, the rebels
were “packed up & ready
to start.”
