A peaceful morning at Oaklands

Unsuspecting Yanks prepare breakfast

Gen. Forrest arrives with his cavalry

The Confederates prepare to attack

The battle is on !

Charge !

Union cannons are no match for Forrest's men

The Yanks retreat

The Confederate Cavalry has them surrounded

Forrest demands they surrender

The Yanks wave the white flag

Yankee prisoners being marched away

Happy local Southern Belles
