It was a desolate, uninteresting hamlet with a post office and one store, our supplies had to be hauled through the woods and swamps by team, and our mail by mounted couriers who had to run the gauntlet of guerillas who infested the country. Heavy details also had to be sent with the teams to guard them when haul ing the supplies from Corinth twelve. Miles distant. In the spring we broke camp and marched to Bethel, Tenn. , on the Mobile and Ohio R. R. Headquarters of the regiment were estab lis...hed at Bethel, with some of the companies scattered along the rail road to guard bridges and patrol the road. Captain Reiniger of com pany "B, "was appointed Provost Marshal, and Co. "B"was sent to Farr s Mills. We relieved an Illinois regiment who had been there through the winter. They had built log huts at each post, with stockades for protection in case of attack by superior forces. As we had left our tents at Corinth it was very convenient for us to move into the com fortable quarters vacated by these regiments.
