This we commenced ascending at once, which proved to be CROSSING RACCOON MOUNTAIN. 161 a very laborious task, and was truly one of " tugs of war, " but the scene was entirely new to the jolly boys, and they surmounted every obstacle, passing many good jokes relative to their new adventure. We suc ceeded in crossing, and descended on the south side into a narrow valley, through which the railroad passed, where we camped for the night. The 13th we continued our march, keeping down the same valley..., known as Crow Creek Yalley, through which flowed a bright stream, bearing the same name. We followed this valley until we came to Stevenson, Ala. , where we stopped over night, and where we remained until the afternoon of next day, when the " assembly horn" gave notice that we were to immediately march again. Ac cordingly, at 1 P. M. , we set out along the line of rail road toward Chattanooga, and camped at Bolivar feta tion the night of the 14th. We pressed forward on the 15th, and reached Bridgeport, Ala.
