About 300 yds. upstream was a ford over which this road formally crossed. Here, following a council of war in which he had refused to consent to the Confederate surrender, Col. Nathan Bedford Forrest led his calvary regiment unopposed out of the position. The ford was then flooded. He was followed by numerous artillery and infantry stragglers from other units.
