I've misplaced the part of my file that has Gen. Adams' after battle report. I'm 99.5% positive that in it he states he captured two artillery pieces.

One secondary source that states this is the "Memorial Record of Alabama", Vol. 1, page 150, published by Brant and Fuller, Madison, Wis., 1893. This states, "At Pleasant Ridge, he [Gen. Croxton] was met by Gen. Wirt Adams, who charged the cavalry, taking several prisoners and capturing wagons, artillery, ambulances and Gen. Croxton's papers."
