Price’s Retreat through Cassville, Missouri
The Good:
1. My nephew Jason Keith joined us.
2. My friend Todd Stewart joined us.
3. Saturday’s battle was pretty good.
4. We would have wiped out the Yankee cavalry when they mistakenly rode in front of us thinking we were unloaded. Only half were unloaded.
5. I preached in the rain.
6. Sam commanding a 40 man company.
7. Lots of firewood.
The Bad:
1. Cold
2. My preaching in the rain.
The Ugly:
1. Lots and lots of rain.
2. Sunday’s battle being called off due to rain.
3. Low battalion numbers due to first day of deer hunting season.
