No. 85. report of Capt. Cullen Bradley, Sixth Ohio Battery. Sixth Ohio Battery, Arty. Brig., 4TH Army Corps, Camp near Jonesborough, Ga., September 6, 1864. Lieutenant: I have the honor herewith to present a synopsis of the part taken by the Sixth Ohio Independent Light Battery, during the campaign in Georgia, under Maj. Gen. W. T. Sherman, commanding Military Division of the Mississippi, commencing on the 3d day of May, 1864, at McDonald's Station, Tenn., and ending on the 5th day of September, 1864, on Macon and Atlanta Railroad, at or near Lovejoy's Station, Ga. I would remark that it is almost impossible to give a minute report. The unusual length of time consumed in making the campaign (a little over four months) precludes the idea. I would also state the battery has been commanded by three different officers during the campaign, viz, first, by First Lieut. O. H. P. Ayres, who commanded until June 1, 1864; second, by First Lieut. L. D. Immell, Buttery G, First Regime

Lyman Bridges, Illinois Volunteer Artillery, thus relieving me from the duties of chief of artillery and returning m
