This group was a mixture of Forrest's men, [[John Hunt Morgan]]'s Kentucky Cavalry, [[Terry's Texas Rangers|Texas Rangers]], and the 1st Mississippi Cavalry (Adams' Cavalry). They were armed with revolvers and shotguns, and were instructed to fire only when they were within 20 steps of the enemy. On the left, two brigades from Wood's Union division skirmished with [[Wirt Adams' Cavalry Regiment]] and then returned to camp. On the right, a group led by Forrest attacked Sherman's men as they were clearing fallen timber near a small creek, causing some of them to run for their lives. Unofficial Union casualties were 15 killed, 25 wounded, and 53 taken prisoner. Among the few Confederate wounded was Forrest, who escaped after being shot at close range. Sherman ended the pursuit, and Breckinridge continued south.<ref name="Daniel296-297">{{harvnb|Daniel|1997|pp=296–297}}</ref>
