May 1, 1863

Nathan Bedford Forrest attacked Col. Streight's column as it crossed Locust's swift waters, causing the Federals to make tremendous exertions to complete the movement, contributing thereby to Streight's eventual surrender of his entire command to Forrest some forty hours later and seventy-five miles distant from Battle Royal.
