MURFREESBOROUGH, TENN.,
August 30, 1862.

GENERAL:
I arrived here this morning at 6 o’clock. The forces under my command had an engagement with General Forrest between 3 and 4 o’clock p. m. on the 27th instant at Round Mountain, 2 1/2 miles from Woodbury. He made the attack upon our rear, and as he supposed upon our train. But instead of my train his heavy force came in contact with the Twenty-third Kentucky, under Colonel Mundy. The enemy was handsomely repulsed, and with a portion of Captain Mendeuhall’s battery, the right wing of the Thirty-Sixth Indiana, and Colonel Mundy’s regiment we pursued and drove them over 2 miles, scattering them in every direction.

Our loss is 4 of Twenty-third Kentucky and 1 of Lieutenant-Colonel Cochran’s cavalry wounded. The loss of the enemy is much larger.

Your obedient servant,

WM. GROSE,
Colonel, Commanding Tenth Brigade.

Brig. Gen. JACOB AMMEN,
McMinnville, Tenn.
