Ninth Regiment Cavalry
in command of Lieutenant Roys, took transports for Cincinnati, arriving there on the 15th. They were immediately disembarked and ordered by General Burnside on a march, with a view to flanking Morgan's force, then moving on the Ohio side of the river.
Major Gallagher, with Company L, was ordered on a reconnaissance, and after marching about ten miles came upon the rear of the enemy's column, moving in the direction of Camp Dennison. The major, after careful observation, returned to Cincinnati, and reported in person to General Burnside Morgan's movements and his force.
