Civil War
EIGHTEENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
"For some days previous to the 26th I had been watching the movements of Hood's army, as well as those of Forrest and Roddy, and scouted the surrounding country as thoroughly as possible with the amount of cavalry at my disposal. On the morning of
the 26th I sent out two parties of fifty each on the Somerville and Courtland roads. The one on the Somerville road met a considerable force of the enemy about three miles out and were obliged to retire.
