Michigan Civil War
Eleventh Regiment Infantry
With the aid of Captain Morton, Chief Engineer, he pushed forward to early completion the forts which subsequently became known as ' Forts Negley, ' 'Andrew Johnson, ' ' Confiscation, ' and ' Casino, ' and established a complete and thorough picket line, strengthened by rifle-pits and heavy abatis, soon making it one of the best fortified in the country. At the same time he reorganized the 8th division, composed of fractions of brigades and regiments left by reason of non-organization to add to the garison at Nashville.
