Can see artillery and a long train of wagons going up the road on Mission Ridge, 85 degrees east of south from this station.
Nov. 23, 11:15 a.m.
Naylor's battery is firing at wagons going up the mountain and at men at work on earthwork near white house. Three shots from summit of Lookout this morning.
Nov. 23, 3 p.m.
Naylor's and Aleshire's batteries firing at enemy in line of battle on our right beyond rolling mill.
It is very probable that the firing of our batteries at this time was intended to draw the attention of the enemy from the approach of Gen. Sherman's troops above Chattanooga.
