Company "A" 2nd TX Partisan Rangers, Cooke County, Texas *********************************************************** Submitted by: Carlton Falconer Date: Aug 2005 Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm *********************************************************** This is possibly the first actual battle in the war that Co. 'A' from Cooks County was involved. Obviously they won the battle. They had no food except 3 ears of corn, no way to grind the corn, and cattle that they had driven from Texas. They did not have enough ammunition so they collected what the Yankees used to shot at them then fired it back at the Yankees. They were tough, brave men that fought and died for what they believed in. Image available at Co "A" 2nd TX Partisan Rangers.
