Ninth Regiment Cavalry
Further memoranda refer to continued marches and counter marches during the month, which closed with the regiment on Little river. The May return notes the encampment of the regiment near Nicholasville, Ky., waiting for equipment.
In June following, this regiment was again found fighting with the notorious Morgan, near Cynthiana, Ky. It appears that on June 9th the regiment, then in command of Colonel Acker, was in camp at Nicholasville, and ordered to scout as far as Bayley's Cross-roads, a distance of fourteen miles, with orders that if the enemy was found to engage him. Not finding him, Colonel Acker returned.
