On the 21st the regiment in command of Captain Abeel, with the 28th Kentucky, Colonel Boone commanding brigade, moved out on a scout, crossing Pigeon mountain at its intersection with Lookout, thence down the mountain into Brownstown valley to Summersville. The advance of the 4th Michigan captured several horses and mules, a government wagon, and fifteen prisoners, including one captain, then marched across Taylor's Ridge in the direction of Dalton, Ga., where the camp of some "Home Guards" in command of Colonel Culbertson was destroyed, containing considerable arms and other property; the command then moved back to Rossville.
