Report of Brig. Gen. James C. Tappan, C. S. Army, command nlg
Churchill's division, of engagemen t at Pleasant Hill.
HDQRS. FIRST DIVISION, ARKANSAS TROOPS
(KNOWN AS CHURCHILL'S DIVISION),
April 12, 1864.
LIEUTENANT : Being in command of the above-named division in
the battle which occurred at Pleasant Hill, La., on April 9, it be-
comes my duty to report the action of said division in that affair,
which will be ever memorable on account of its influence upon the
destinies of the Trans-Mississippi Department of the Confederacy.
Said division was composed of two brigades, one (Tappan's brigade)
commanded in said action by Col. H. L. Grinsted, and the other
(Churchill's brigade) commanded by Col. L. C. Gause. Brigadier-
General Churchill, having been put in command of Parsons' Missouri
division and the above-mentioned Arkansas division, put me in com-
mand of said division.
On Thursday night, April 7, about 11 o'clock, I received orders
from Brigadier-General Churchill to hold the division in readiness
to move the next morning for Mansfield at daylight. I gave the nec-
essary orders, and the next morning I moved promptly at the hour
directed. We reached Mansfield that evening exactly at 3.30 p. m.
The battle of Mansfield was then progressing, but Major-General
Taylor not deeming it necessary to order uts into the fight, we were
directed to take position on what is knowli as the Gravelly Point road,
to prevent a flank movement of the enemy which was anticipated in
that direction. That night the division prepared two days' rations
