Gentlemen,
Following up on my 3MdA post:

> 26 men are listed counting their recruiter ( Holmes Irvin )
These men manned the far left Napoleon from Missionary Ridge
thru Nashville. 16 men plus the gun were captured on the 2nd
day about 1/4 mile west of the Franklin Pike along present day
Battery Lane a little east of the creek.
A portion of the parapets remain in the backyard of the home just
north of Battery Lane at the bend in the road. That is the last time I was on the grounds.
The section was firing double canister as they were being hemmed in on
three sides.
Your servant Suh,
Skip Earle
