PRIVATE SOLDIERS OF THE SEVENTH.

month later another Union column
tried the experiment and met Forrest ut
Tupclo. After some minor fights the
Union troops picked their ground and
awaited battle. Forrest dismounted his
men and led them rccklcssly toward the
breastworks across open ground swept
with canister and musketry fire. The
slaughter WAS enormous, but the persistent
fighter put in his last reserves, which in
cluded the Seventh. The heat was intense

that the Tcnncsseeans were not unwilling
conscripts, but wore the gray from choice.
Forrest was caught north of the Tennessee
river with but 1000 men to cope with

Pulaski and began to ferry his troops and
guns across on two old barges.
Finally all had crossed but the rear
guard, which was the Seventh Tennessee.

Che lighting qualities Of the men SO Openly

the fighting qualities Of the men SO openly
that the troopers were named FORESTS
Pets" an honor previously monopolizcd
by his own old regiment. After the fight
Forrest remained in the vicinity some
days, and an enthusiastic lady Of Aber-
deem, inspired by the general admiration
of the Tennesseeans, presented them with
battleflag made from her satin wedding
dress. This incident had a sequel.
Ono month later Forrest made another
OF his numerous incursions across west
Tennessee. The important post of Union
City lay in the path, and Col. Duckworth.
Of the Seventh, was ordered to attack 1t
with his own regiment and a couple of
others in support. Col. Duckworth led the
Seventh and coming to close quarters
under cover of darkness SAW by the light
of II burning house that the place was sur
rounded with rifle pits and abatis and
strengthened by II large redoubt. Having
put his neck into IL trap, so to speak, he
was i'll II tight place. Forests orders
were imperative, and his plans elsewhere
called for the fall of Union City.
Col. Duclworth and his men knew the
ground thoroughly, having camped there
in 1861, so it was decided to adopt Il ruse of
war to even up the odds somewhat. They
badn't single cannon along, but they
rugged up Il substitute out of II log and Il
section of wagon gear, which, if it wouldn't
go OFT, would scare equal to the best, and
that was al that WAS needed. The troop
ers dismounted and marched in front Of
the works, sending the horses with holders,
to The rear. At the proper time the hose
holders sounded the bugle and led the
horses back again to the line OH n thun-
dcring gallop to simulate cavalry re-er-
forccments. Then Col. Duckworth rode
up to the fort and demanded surrender in
the name OF Gen. Forrest
The Union commander, who was II colo
nell answered the demand by asking to
meet Gen. Forrest Mt the flag OF truce to
arrange terms. Col Duckworth promptly
signed FORESTS name, with full rank, to Il
note stating that Il major general was not
expected to parley with an enemy of in.
ferior rank, and that Col Duciworth, of
the Seventh Tennessee cavalry, would ar
range the details. 1t so happened that the
garrison was composed OF the Seventh
Tennessee Union cavalry, and whether the
Union colonel. in fit of enthusiasm over
the unique meeting, determined to let the
rivals indulge in Il handshake or whether
nervousness over that Quaker gun, which
the telegraph operator in town magnified
into two cannon, cliuched the raiders ar
gument, has never been explained, but ut
any rate the perturbed commandment
promptly hoisted the white flag. Thus
after an absence of two years the old ran
gers again owned the town of Union City.
1t was while taking the back track from
this raid that Forrest stormcd Fort Pillow.
but the Seventh had no share in that in
glorious exploit. Then the whole corps
galloped once more to central Mississippi
to meet the Union raiding expedition under
Gen. Sturgis. y finishing fight took place
ut Brice's Crossroads. June 10.
