Morgan's Raiders Overtaken





"General Morgan's great anxiety was to get to this ford before Shackelford's force, which was then traveling a parallel road."

"We were then running for dear life with empty guns as well as empty stomachs, but alas, the mountain made a bend to the right and ran us right into the arms of Shackelford's parallel force." (Source: The Partisan Rangers of the Confederate States Army)
