Michigan Civil War
TWELFTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
They were only about 25 rods apart. Colonel May immediately changed his base and started for camp, and having the better horse soon left his pursuers. They exhausted considerable ammunition, and hallooed lustily for him to halt. Not regarding their request, he soon after reached camp and reported to Colonel Graves the state of affairs. It was soon discovered that Van Dorn's army, numbering from five to seven thousand of cavalry and mounted infantry, were near and disposed to make us trouble.
