I have frequently, but especially forty nine years ago, on the 15th of December,, when the 19th Tennessee Infantry was detached from the Army at Murphreesboro and sent to LaVergne fifteen miles from Nashville, and there employed as skirmishers to combat the whole Yankee army, until we reached Racon creek on the night of Dec. 28th, where we burned the bridge, and delayed the battle of Murphreesboro one day, the Yankees having to rebuild the bridge before they could cross with their artillery. The rain having ceased on the night of the 29th, on the night of the 30th, we were placed in line of battle on the north bank of the Stone river, the ground frozen hard, we were not allowed a spark of fire or light; the Yankee army in line on the Wilkerson Pike with a battery composed of eighteen Napoleon guns, with their line of pickets and sharp shooters only 300 yards in front. We had orders from the commanding general, detailed each regiment by the Adjutant, to watch for the sky rocket that would go up in the town of Murphreesboro the next morning, for Cheatham's Division to open fire and advance on the enemy. We caught the Yankees napping, and got some of their good coffee and ham, something we had not had in a long time. I would like to know how many in St. Francis county today who were on that memorable field. And well do I remember on the night of the 31st, in line of battle all night, still cold and without light, and on Jan. 1st, when the gallant General Raines charged those masked field pieces on the Murphreesboro Pike and thereby lost his own life, three comrades who were there, W. H. Coffey, W. H. McDaniel, and J. B. Hodges have crossed the river. I know no others besides myself, but possibly many others in this county were there. I had the honor, or misfortune to be there myself. I held the rank of high private in the rear rank of Company C, 9th Tennessee Infantry; since the close of war, I have held higher positions, having reached the rank as Colonel. Respectfully, S. Emory Sweet. Our Senior, Col. Edwin Landvoight, was in this memorable fight, as a member of the organization known throughout the army as "Clay King's Hellhounds, " which was stationed on Breckinridges's right.
