Having brought about the surrender of the Federal garrison of
Murfreesboro by 4:00 p.m., Col. Nathan Bedford Forrest's
Brigade halted here overnight, enroute to McMinnville, where
prisoners were processed and captured material inventoried. In
addition to the extensive capture of men and horses, and
destruction of material, munitions and rolling stock, the raid
had caused the abandonment by Major General Don Carlos
Buell of the Federal drive on Chattanooga.
