Hi Reta! As it happens, someone else on another mailing list was asking about Sterling Price's invasion of Missouri in 1864 and the response included the order of battle for the Confederate force. You will find Lt. Col. Schnable and his battalion listed among them. -- Robert W. King I'm an ingenieur, NOT a bloody locomotive driver!

I know that Price had approximately 15,000 men in 8 brigades organized into 3 divisions led by Shelby, Marmaduke, and Fagan. However, I am having no luck discovering what regiments and other units made up these brigades. Any help would be appreciated.

They poured a murderous Volley into us, wounded many of our men, killing some. In front of us on a small hill in thick timber were posted the enemy in strong force, 350 yds from us. We charged through in open fields, shot shell, grape and ball coming in and among us. Many a brave man bit the dust."

Then after moving On nearer, when the cannonading became more frequent, you could hear: "Boys, we are going to get into it." Then there would begin the searching of pockets for gambling goods, playing cards especially. The thought of being killed with such in their pockets induced the soldiers to throw them away. The road would soon be covered with playing cards, dice, dice boxes, etc. Some would be slow in ridding themselves, although they would do so before entering battle." Samuel W. Hankins, Co.
