Recollections of Civil War Chapter XI Battle near Murfreesboro
The narrative recalls Morgan and Bragg moving to Tullahoma and McMinnville, hardships at Woodbury with constant rain, scarce food, and picket duty. A small southern detachment captures Federal cavalry, then scouting trips to Liberty and adjacent farms, and two brigades reorganized under Breckenridge and Gano. The author details a dawn raid, a breakfast reward, and battlefield skirmishes near Liberty with cavalry actions and a notable long-range rifle shot.
