  • Time was of the essence following the Union’s surrender. Aware of Union reinforcements advancing from Castalian Springs, Morgan and his men loaded as many empty wagons as they could manage with confiscated Union supplies and they discarded their Austrian rifles and muskets in favor of the Springfield rifles that had belonged to the Union troops. Morgan then directed his men and prisoners to cross the ford known then as Walker’s Landing, now known as Taylor’s Landing, while he directed the wagons and cannons to cross a half mile up the river at Hart's Ferry. Imagine rushing from the battle field to cross this river for the second time in less than 12 hours – in chest-deep, icy water with a several inches snow on the ground, in the bitter cold, with 2 to 3 men on horseback. It was done with success. See Stop #16.
