Colonel Lyon’s Letters.
Stevenson, Ala., Thursday, June 2, 1864.—We are still here, you see, but hope to get started tomorrow. We are waiting for our teams, which are on the road here from Nashville and expected tonight. The regiment is together now, except the men detailed at Nashville and a few others. They make a fine show.
Adjutant Ruger went through here last evening wounded. He was struck in the knee by a piece of shell, bruising him pretty badly; but he will probably recover without any permanent injury to the limb. He is in fine spirits. This occurred a week ago.
We shall be able to take all of our traps, and the Adjutant and I are going to let Jerry do our cooking. We rather like the prospect of moving.
