First Regiment Light Artillery
The services of the battery while with General Mitchell's command in Northern Alabama were varied, and were mostly performed by dividing it up into detachments. One piece, in command of Lieutenant O'Riordan was on a gun-boat in service on the Tennessee while another was on the railroad doing patrol duty with a car fitted up for that purpose, being faced with railroad iron and so arranged and built up as to give the structure on the car the form of a wedge, while other portions of the battery were on detached service at various " points.
