Thirty-Fourth Ohio Zouaves Battle at Boone Creek Pass

The Clermont Courier recounts Pratt's Zouaves advancing from Camp Dennison with Col. Enyart into rebel terrain near Boone C. H. and the Lit tle Coal River. The 34th repelled a cavalry threat, captured the crest, and caused heavy enemy casualties while suffering four killed and nine wounded. The column then looted spoils, faced a night retreat in rain, and endured a forced, exhausted 50 mile backward march to camp Bayart with wounded left in care of Col. Davis.

Camp Pratt Reminiscence During Harsh River Crossing

J. P. Coombs recalls a brutal retreat to Camp Pratt in October 1861. Union troops forded a rising Little Coal River amid rain and cold, building fires in a cave and sleeping under a natural shelter. They faced fatigue, loss of gear, and a grim moonlit march toward their elusive Ka nawha home, enlivened briefly by a feast delivered by Frank Fee.
