Diary of Private Richard R. Hancock: Wednesday, March 5, 1862

Passing on through Fayetteville, crossing Elk River, we went into camps on its bank half a mile from town, in Lincoln County. Had another nice camping place. Distance from Shelbyville to Fayetteville, twenty-six miles. Here we rested one day.
