Diary of Private Ephraim Shelby Dodd, Tuesday, April 7, 1863

Marched on way to Liberty far enough to consume the day when we turned back in getting to Camp; had to go down and up a pretty steep mountain. The Yankees had possession of Liberty; drove Morgan's men out. We came back to Ballou's (Blues) and camped. Nothing for our horses to eat or ourselves.
