Fourth Cavalry
On the afternoon of the 31st, the regiment having moved rapidly across the country from Lavergne, whither it had been sent the night before to operate against General Wheeler, rejoined the brigade, which took up a position on the right flank of General McCook, at Stone river, and nearly parallel to, and about three-fourths of a mile from, the Nashville and Murfreesboro pike. Here the regiment, in command of Captain Mix, formed a line of dismounted skirmishers, close to the edge of a wood, out of which had been driven a large force of the enemy's cavalry.
