Diary of Private Richard R. Hancock: Sunday, December 15, 1861

As Captain Allison was now relieved from escort duty, and also of his prisoners, and as the sick boys were improving, he and I went to camps, leaving three of our company to wait on the four sick. We found the battalion at Camp Hall, where I left it the third instant.

Our battalion moved about ten miles that afternoon and camped for the night within six miles of Mill Springs.
