Bean Station, Tenn. Dark,
cloudy and foggy. Hear Jacob Smallered of "C" Co. was killed
yesterday. At noon Col. Garrard came along with the Brigade. Teams ordered to
hitch up. Didn't feel well but concluded to go out. June went with me to station.
Artillery firing commenced. Found rebels near the station in position. Forces
were disposed of and work commenced. 2nd Ohio moved from under fire. Ordered
back again. Hot fire from 2 till dark, awful firing. Heavy body of rebels on
flanks and center.
