Fourth Cavalry
KENTUCKY
(3-YEARS)

Fourth Cavalry. -- Cols., Jesse Bayles, G. Clay Smith,
Wickliffe Cooper; Lieut.- Cols., Llewellyn Gwynne, Jacob
Ruckstuhl; Majs., John F. Gunkel, Sidney S. Lyon.

Recruiting for this regiment began in Sept., 1861, under the
call of Col. Bayles, who organized the regiment at the fair-
grounds at Louisville. The companies came from Louisville,
and the counties of Jefferson, Spencer and Bullitt.

The regiment was first sworn in by Maj. John W. Barr, and
first paid off in its camp at the fair-grounds by R. J.
Menefee, of Louisville. It was held at Louisville until Jan.
6, 1862, when it marched to Bardstown and went into a camp of
instruction, being in the brigade commanded by Gen. William H.
Lytle. On March 26 it left Bardstown and proceeded to
Nashville.

In May, Col. Smith became colonel of the regiment, and the
same month, while he was in command, the regiment was in
several engagements with the Confederate cavalry in Tennessee,
particularly one at Lebanon with Morgan, and for gallant
service there Col. Smith was made brigadier general. While
stationed at Murfreesboro, Gen. Bragg's movement to Kentucky
began, and the regiment was employed to cover the movement of
Buell's army in pursuit as far as Bowling Green.
