American Civil War
Fourteenth Regiment Infantry
Another report says a forage train of General Bragg was captured, together with the guard, and sent to camp.
On the 1st of November, 1863, the regiment was employed in garrison for the posts at Franklin and Columbia, Tenn., and in guarding the railway between those towns. It constructed, during this and the following month, at Columbia, fortifications and a pontoon and railway bridge. A large number of rebel officers and soldiers were captured by the regiment, and the country for miles around was freed from lawless bands of guerrillas which had infested it. Numbers of the inhabitants were induced to take the oath of allegiance.
