Michigan Civil War
Eleventh Regiment Infantry
My regiment was then promptly advanced to the edge of the woods, and continued to fire upon him as he fled in disorder across the open field in front to his line of intrenchments. At this time the ammunition was nearly exhausted, and my regi- ment, with the others in advance, formed in line of battle, threw out skirmishers, and held our position until recalled across the river. The 11th was among the first that crossed Stone river and assisted in capturing four pieces of artillery abandoned by the enemy in his flight. I cannot speak too highly of the conduct of the troops under my command.
