Diary of Private Richard R. Hancock: Sunday, March 9, 1862

We marched through a section of country the principal growth of which was post-oak. There were so many quicksand bogs that it was difficult for our wagons to pass. Marching about eleven miles, passing out of Tennessee, we camped for the night in Limestone County, Alabama.
