864: I have just received news of the defeat of our party sent out from Memphis, whose chief object was to hold Forrest there and keep him off our road. I have ordered A. J. Smith not to go to Mobile, but to go out from Memphis and defeat Forrest at all costs. Again, as early as June 6, General Sherman telegraphed General Thomas to prepare a cavalry raid for Opelika, Alabama; but when it was ready to move he was afraid to let it start, and telegraphed to General Rousseau, at Nashville, June 20th, . . wait and see what Forrest will do. And on the 29th June to the same officer: Do not start until we know something definite of General A. J. Smith. To the same officer on the 30th June: The movement I want you to study and be prepared for is contingent on the fact that General A. J. Smith defeats Forrest or holds him well in check. And July 6th to the same officer: That cavalry expedition must be off now. . . . I have official information that General A. J. Smith is out from Memphis

A feeble attack is made in the afternoon on Elliott's brigade of Johnson's division. June 19th Sharp skirmishing during the day, and a sort of advance on Kershaw's right and Field's left during the night. June 20th and 21st Affairs unchanged. June 22d A. P. Hill goes out with Mahone and Wilcox — B. R. Johnson supporting — and drives the enemy from our right. It is a handsome affair--two thousand prisoners, four pieces of artillery, seven colors, being among the captures. June 23d Preparations made for the contemplated attack tomorrow. Field at night withdraws from the trenches — Bushrod Johnson relieving him — and moves to the left in support of and co-operation with Hoke. Field
