Otman, who had command of the rear guard, was followed and attacked by the enemy early in the morning. Being overpowered, he was pressed back from one position to another during the whole day. Near night he was so hard pressed that Gen. Willich, in charge of the supply and am- munition trains, sent the Tenth Indiana to his support. During the night of the 17th, and until late in the even- ing of the 18th, the weather was pleasant, and the rain not eo disagreeable. About night the wind shifted t...o the north, enow commenced falling, and the ground was soon covered. Fatigued and hungry, after eighteen hours in the saddle, we bivouacked in our wet clothes and blankets, and soon 284 FIRST KENTUCKY CAVALRY. were covered with snow. The keen wind was cut off, but not having a dry thread upon us, we soon became very much chilled. Fortunately, when the weather changed, a number of log heaps had been set on fire, and the only prevention against severe suffering was to spread an overcoat or blanket before the fire, lie down, and while scorching on one side and freezing on the other, keep constantly turning from side to side.
