Second Regiment Cavalry
The public interest, the discipline and success of the regiment, make it a necessity that those vacancies should be filled at once.
"Will you have the kindness, Governor, to give this your immediate attention."
The regiment moved to the field in Kentucky via Louisville, and was in the advance in the movement from that point on Perryville, engaged the enemy's rear guard, from time to time, meeting a stubborn resistance, but their long range repeating rifles soon made the way clear,—dislodging the enemy from every cover. Arriving in the vicinity of Perryville, the regiment having the advance soon became engaged.
