Diary of Private Ephraim Shelby Dodd: Friday December 26, 1862

Were aroused early this morning with the word the Yankees are in Nolensville. Went up at double quick and found them there. Fought them there all day until night, falling back to our old Camp at Mr. Page's. Staid there tonight. Our loss, one piece of cannon and a few men—McClure of Company E killed.
