William H. Roose, Indiana's Birthplace: A History of Harrison County, Indiana (New Albany, IN: Tribune Company Printers, 1911), p. 65-66. .On Wednesday afternoon, the Home Guards, with Col. Jordon (consider Jordan a spelling variant) in command, gathered a force of 300 men and marched south on the Mauckport Road about four miles to a point where Peter Glenn lived. A body of rebel cavalry had dismounted at Glenn's house and shot John Glenn, who appeared on the porch with a gun in his hand. Before the war, Mr. Glenn had preached at many points in Kentucky and, occasionally, he had bitterly denounced the institution of slavery. It is said that by so doing he had incurred the displeasure of a number of Kentuckians who were then with Morgan's command. When the Home Guards arrived, the rebels rushed for their horses, and Mr. Glenn shot one man who was delayed in his efforts to release his horse. The rebels later killed Mr. Glenn and burned the house in which he lived. About 11:30 Thursday morning, the report reached Corydon that the enemy were coming. The Home Guards, under command of Colonel Lewis Jordan, Provost Marshal Timberlake and Major J. S. Pfrimmer, formed a line of battle on the hill about a mile south of Corydon and threw up a temporary breast works composed of logs, brush and fence rails. When Morgan's Advance Guard appeared, they were repulsed by the infantry under command of Capt. G. W. Lahue. In that fight Harry Steepleton (consider Stapleton as a spelling variant) was killed.
