brigade and to be commanded by him. Col. Looney, at the time he reported at Corinth, had one regiment and one battalion and other companies awaiting his orders. When he arrived at Corinth his several companies were taken from him, and with several other detached companies formed into the Twenty-sixth Regi- ment Alabama Volunteers. Second Lieut. A. D. Gwynne, of Co. A, was ap- pointed Major of the regiment. At the organization of the army at Corinth the Thirty-eighth Tennessee Regiment was assigned to Pond's brigade, Ruggles's di- vision, and Bragg's corps. Pond's brigade was composed of the Thirty-eighth Tennessee Regiment (R. F. Looney, Colonel commanding), four Louisiana regi- ments, and one battery.


The first event of note after the reorganization of the army at Corinth was the famous battle of Shiloh, April 6 and 7, 1862. The Thirty-eighth Tennessee was engaged in the figlit both Sunday and Monday, and was in the last charge made by the Confederates on Monday. They were complimented by Gen. Beauregard on Sunday's field for a gallant charge and capture of a battery that several regi- ments had previously failed to take. They were in the charge on Sunday evening that captured Prentiss's brigade, and were ready to assist in the capture of the last Federal huddled under the river-bank that evening, but, much to their surprise, were ordered to fall back. The enemy's gun-boats, which were shelling furiously, did us no damage; nor could they have inflicted any, had we moved forward, with- out as much damage to their own men. I do not know who was responsible for the order, but I do know the gallant Polk had given us orders to advance when he received orders to retire. The account of this fight has been so often and bet- ter told that I will not attempt it.


Those who participated in the first day's fight and are now living will never for- get that terrible night. Our regiment was on an outpost and not far from the river. We were without shelter, the rain falling. The Federal bands could be distinctly heard as Buell's forces were crossing the river. The gun-boats were shelling every few moments through the night. In the early gray of the morn- ing the enemy opened on us, and after a short engagement the Thirty-eighth was ordered to fall back. Later they were ordered to join Hardee at the little log church (Shiloh), and from that point assisted in the last charge made by our in- fantry. That evening we fell back to Monterey, and the next day to Corinth.


Thus far the history of Rice's Battery-then known as Co. A, Thirty-eighth Tennessee Regiment-and that of the regiment were identical. Capt. John A. Lea, having previously been assigned to staff duty with Gen. Ledbetter, in East Tennessee, was not with the company at Shiloh. On our return to Corinth a re- organization was ordered in our company, with the following result: T. W. Rice, Captain; B. F. Haller, First Lieutenant; H. H. Briggs, Second Lieutenant; D. C. Jones, Third Lieutenant.


This company was detached from the Thirty-eighth Regiment, and assigned to the command of a heavy battery, consisting of two rifled thirty-two pounders and one smooth-bore twenty-four pounder. These guns were on breastworks com- man'ing the lower Farmington road. By this time the enemy had advanced un- til artillery duels were of daily occurrence, but without material injury to us. This state of affairs continued until the evacuation of Corinth, when the follow- ing artillery companies were ordered to Columbus, Miss .: Rice's, Lynch's, and Johnson's, Tennessee; Thrall's and Owens's, Arkansas; and Bane's, Mississippi. 55

We Were then formed into a battalion, with Capt. Lynch commanding and Lieut. B. F. Haller Adjutant. Later Lynch, Johnson, Bane, and Owen were ordered to Vicksburg. Rice and Thrall remained in that department until equipped as light artillery, when they were assigned to Gen. Forrest's command.


Rice's Battery assisted in the fight at Okolona. For some time after this it was engaged in frustrating small raids, and did not participate in any affair of impor- tance until June 10, 1864, at the battle of Tishiomingo Creek. I refresh my mein- ory from Gen. Forrest's "Campaigns," commencing on page 470:


"Meanwhile Rice's and Morton's batteries, having been brought up at a gal- lop for some eight miles, were immediately thrown forward into position in an open field on a hill in rear of Lyons's brigade, and opened with spirit and execu- tion, especially upon the Federal infantry confronting Rucker. . . . Buford had been assigned to the command of the right and center, embracing Lyons's and Johnson's brigades and the artillery-Rice's and Morton's, four guns each-with instructions to attack strenuously as soon as Bell was heard in action; and this was the position of the combat about midday. The Federals, constantly reenforced by fresh regiments brought up one after another, were so greatly superior in num- ber that the result was still extremely doubtful. Forrest therefore repaired in person to where his artillery was in position in front of Lyons, ordering the pieces to be double-shotted with canister-a favorite practice-and limbered up, and moved with them down a gentle slope to within sixty yards of the Federal lines, to the edge of a field about a quarter of a mile north-east of Brice's house. Just at this moment a strong Federal line, resuming the offensive, was emerging from the woods into the open ground. In this position Rice's and Morton's batteries opened with signal execution. The Confederate fire of small arms and artillery was rapid, incessant, desolating. Forrest's line was now shortened, and hence strengthened as it converged upon the cross-roads, and the Federals were driven back at all points into a broad ravine westward of Brice's house leading to Tisli- omingo Creek. Infantry, cavalry, artillery, their wagon-train and ambulances were huddled together in an almost inextricable coil, and upon the mass Rice's and Morton's batteries were brought to bear with fearful carnage. By this time six guns had been captured at Brice's house, and several of them, manned by the Confederate artillerists, were turned upon the Federals, disabling the horses of another of the enemy's batteries. Rice's and Morton's batteries were rapidly moved forward to the obstructed mass of the enemy, and poured upon it a deadly tide of canister. The havoc was ghastly. Here another battery was abandoned as the enemy crowded back along the Ripley road toward Tishomingo Creek. The bridge, which was still standing, was blocked up with wagons. Finding their . way thus blocked, they rushed into the creek; but as they emerged from the water on the west bank the first section of Rice's Battery played upon them for half a mile, killing and disabling large numbers. The second section of Rice's Battery was worked across the creek, and, supported by the escort, overtook and opened upon the negro brigade with double-shotted canister with appalling effect. The obstructions having been removed by throwing the wagons into the water, the rest of the artillery swiftly followed the advance section of Rice's Battery, and, secur- ing favorable position, joined the havoc. Nothing could exceed the daring, spirit, energy, and execution with which the Confederate artillery was handled by its officers.

REGIMENTAL HISTORIES AND MEMORIAL ROLLS.


"About two miles from Brice's Cross-roads the enemy rallied in force, and made a strong fight for about half an hour, driving our troops back upon Rice's Battery. But that battery opening with double charges of canister, and Lyons's brigade springing forward, hurled them back completely demoralized. The pursuit was kept up until darkness rendered it impossible to proceed farther that night. The first section of Rice's Battery was ordered to be supplied and the places of wound- ed men and horses to be made good from the second section and be ready at day- light to continue the pursuit. Most of the night was consumed in getting realy. About 5 o'clock in the morning we commenced the pursuit, and although we had ten horses to each gun and eight to caissons, and moved at a gallop, the swiftness - of the enemy in retreating prevented our using the artillery to any advantage. Quite a number of Federals surrendered to this section during the day, and were turned over by them to the escort.


"The battle of Tishomingo was a wonderful victory, and beyond question the most brilliant that Forrest's command made during the war. Our loss in killed and wounded was about seven hundred. We lost nothing by capture. The Fed- eral loss was about two thousand killed and wounded and about the same number taken prisoners. We captured their entire wagon and ambulance train and twenty pieces of artillery completely equipped. The Federal force engaged in the fight numbered about twelve thousand, the Confederate force about thirty-five hundred."


From the close of the battle of Tishomingo Creek to that of Harrisburg our time was occupied in looking after small raids of the enemy. On the morning of July 14 Forrest's command of eight thousand cavalry and five batteries-four guns each-found themselves in front of the Federal force of sixteen thonsand infantry and cavalry, commanded by Gen. Smith. They were splendidly equipped and were intrenched at the little hamlet of Harrisburg. Gen. S. D. Lee being present, and being senior to Gen. Forrest, assumed command of our force. He formed two lines of battle-Rice's Battery in center of first line. The first line gallantly moved to the attack and closed up on the Federal breastworks. We were met with a storm of artillery and musketry fire. The first section of Rice's Battery was advanced to within two hundred yards of the breastworks, and opened with great effect. Gen. Forrest, from his position observing that this section had been advanced too far, sent one of his aids to order us to fall back, which order was quickly obeyed, for during the short time in that position we had seven men and quite a number of horses wounded.


The fighting continued throughout the day. 'In the early part of the evening it was discovered that the Federals were burning Harrisburg. Gen. Chalmers, with a regiment of cavalry and the second section of Rice', Battery, Lieut. Briggs commanding, made a reconnoissance. Skirmishers were met and driven back. Gen. Chalmers ordered Lient. Briggs to open fire on the enemy gathered around the burning buildings, which caused them to disappear in the darkness of the night. One brigade of our cavalry made a night attack on the enemy's left, but with no good result. The next day was one of great suffering to the men, owing to the intense heat. A great number were overcome, and were sent to the rear. For some cause unknown to the writer the enemy abandoned their splendid po- sition and breastworks, and commenced a retreat. Rice's Battery, with the cav- alry, was ordered to follow in pursuit. Arriving at Old Town Creek, or swamp,

we found ourselves in an ambuscade, but the cavalry dismounting and the battery getting into position opened fire with such good effect that the enemy quickly continued their retreat. We had three battery inen wounded and several horses killed by their first fire. The enemy rapidly disappeared, and the artillery was ordered back to Tupelo. This ended the battle of Harrisburg so far as the artil- lery was concerned.


In August Rice's Battery was ordered to Oxford, but did not take any impor- tant part in the fighting. After Forrest's successful raid on Memphis we were ordered to Grenada, where we remained until his raid on Johnsonville, when the second section of the battery, under command of Second Lieut. H. H. Briggs, was ordered to join the expedition. It made considerable reputation, not only in the attack on Johnsonville and the gun-boats, but throughout the retreat of Hood's army from Middle Tennessee. The first section of the battery had been ordered to the Mobile and Ohio road, and was at Corinth for some time.


When the army fell back to Mississippi Rice's Battery was ordered to Verona. At this place First Lieut. B. F. Haller, with one section of men, was transferred to Morton's battery, and continued with it until we were surrendered, which oc- curred at Gainesville, Ala., May 9, 1865. The remainder of Rice's Battery was sent to Mobile, where it was assigned to a heavy battery in Fort Albert Sidney Johnston, and was surrendered at that point. I do not remember the names of those who were killed or died from their wounds during the war.

Following is a copy of a note inscribed on one of the muster-rolls of said organization by the Captain thereof:


"The history of the company is briefly this :. Gen. E. Kirby Smith gave six of the guns captured at Richmond, Ky., to the undersigned, then Lieutenant of artillery, and authority to raise a company of artillery, to be assigned to Gen. Buford's Kentucky brigade.


" This was done on the 23d of September, 1862, at Lexington, Ky. The company was form- ing, but the evacuation of Lexington on the 5th of October prevented further recruiting, and with condemned horses, patched-up stage-harness, and barely men enough to drive the guns, a battery-wagon and caisson were brought through safely to Knoxville. Tenn. On arriving. the character of the company was changed, and it became horse artillery with four guns, and by order of Gen. Smith the undersigned proceeded to Augusta, Ga., in November, and ob- tained harness, traveling.forge, and cavalry equipments, which made the equipment of the battery complete except the complement of men, who were supplied by order of Gen. Smith. Lieut. Wallace has appointment by same authority and date. “ (Signed) W. R. MARSHALL, Captain " On another muster-roll is written the following :


" By departmental orders the battery was divided on May 7, 1863; first section, under Lieut. Wallace, going with Gen. Pegram to Monticello, Ky .; second section to Kingston, Tenn.


"The battery returned, and was reunited at Knoxville, Tenn., June 30, 1863. " (Signed) W. R. MARSHALL, Captain."
