This video documents an interesting session we had in the Confederate Cemetery. After the Battle of Perryville was over, hundreds of Confederate soldiers were left to rot on the battlefield. Several days passed and the bodies succumbed to wild pigs and vultures. Finally, H.P. Bottom, a farmer who owned much of the land on which the battle was fought, organized a mass burial of the troops on his property. With the help of volunteers and his slaves, Mr. Bottom dug two large pits and dumped the bodies in for burial. He located and documented the names he could find, but most of these soldiers remain unknown to this day.
We documented some really interesting activity here and captured a visual anomaly that we can't explain. It seems to be an apparition that appears suddenly, dives towards the ground and vanishes. This anomaly was captured immediately after Give me help came across on the P-SB7 Spirit Box. We received several other interesting responses from our Spirit Box. We had interesting communication with our Mel Meter and through our iOvilus. We use the iOvilus on an experimental basis but we have some results from this session that are difficult to ignore.

Fall 1862- Confederate GeneralBraxton Bragg tries to give support to the 1862Confederate Invasion of Maryland by invading Kentucky, a neutral state as is Maryland. At both Antietam Md. Sept. 17, 1862 and Perryville, Oct. 1862, both Confederate forces are turned back forcing the Confederacy to adopt a defensive attrition plan to defeat the Union Army and it the political will of the northern states. There is still some limited offensive capability left of the Confederate Army, but it is very risky after these 2 defeats! Also at the end the log chapel in Harrodsburg, Ky. where Abraham Lincoln's parents were wedded.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Battle of Perryville (also known as the Battle of Chaplin Hills) was fought on October 8, 1862, in the Chaplin Hills west of Perryville, Kentucky, as the culmination of the Confederate Heartland Offensive (Kentucky Campaign) during the American Civil War. Confederate Gen. Braxton Bragg's Army of Mississippi initially won a tactical victory against primarily a single corps of Maj. Gen. Don Carlos Buell's Union Army of the Ohio. The battle is considered a strategic Union victory, sometimes called the Battle for Kentucky, since Bragg withdrew to Tennessee soon thereafter. The Union retained control of the critical border state of Kentucky for the remainder of the war.
On October 7, Buell's army, in pursuit of Bragg, converged on the small crossroads town of Perryville in three columns. Union forces first skirmished with Confederate cavalry on the Springfield Pike before the fighting became more general, on Peters Hill, when the Confederate infantry arrived. Both sides were desperate to get access to fresh water. The next day, at dawn, fighting began again around Peters Hill as a Union division advanced up the pike, halting just before the Confederate line. After noon, a Confederate division struck the Union left flank—the I Corps of Maj. Gen. Alexander M. McCook—and forced it to fall back. When more Confederate divisions joined the fray, the Union line made a stubborn stand, counterattacked, but finally fell back with some units routed.Buell, several miles behind the action, was unaware that a major battle was taking place and did not send any reserves to the front until late in the afternoon. The Union troops on the left flank, reinforced by two brigades, stabilized their line, and the Confederate attack sputtered to a halt. Later, three Confederate regiments assaulted the Union division on the Springfield Pike but were repulsed and fell back into Perryville. Union troops pursued, and skirmishing occurred in the streets until dark. By that time, Union reinforcements were threatening the Confederate left flank. Bragg, short of men and supplies, withdrew during the night, and continued the Confederate retreat by way of Cumberland Gap into East Tennessee.Considering the casualties relative to the engaged strengths of the armies, the Battle of Perryville was one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War. It was the largest battle fought in the state of Kentucky.
The Battle of Perryville Reenactment 2013
The battle of Perryville is detailed in the book, Death on a Dry River by Lowell Harrison. According to Harrison, the battle was joined at this location because both armies were looking for water. October of 1862 came at the end of a long summer of drought, and most of the streams, ponds and other small waterways had dried up. For the two armies returning from Chattanooga, and desperately trying to keep out of one another's way, the situation was becoming critical. They had to water their horses and mules, and the men were just as thirsty. Both armies heard a rumor that there was water in Chaplin's River and Doctor's Fork, ten miles west of Danville, KY. Both armies converged on the spot, seeking a drink of water. The ensuing battle lasted resulted in over 7,000 casualties. The Confederates won the battle, but lacked the manpower to hold the field and stole off to the south under cover of darkness, to live to fight another day. They left their dead and dying on the field, where they rotted all winter before the farmer who owned the land was able to organize a civilian work party to bury them in mass graves.
I was here in 1991, when there were probably well over 100 men in the field, and you got a good picture of the smoke and fog of battle. This year, there was competition from another reenactment, and the force was considerably smaller. There were no teams to move the caissons, and it looked more like a skirmish than a battle. Nevertheless, the portrayals were professional and many of the men were anxious to educate the many boy and girl scouts and other children who came out to see the performance. You can hear the excited chatter of the kids in the foreground. I tried to mute them as much as I could, without losing the sounds of the battle.
Civil War Battlefield
In the early afternoon of October 8th, 1862. Buell's army of the Ohio engaged Bragg's confederates at Perryville Kentucky. Over 7,000 Union and Confederate soldiers had ended up killed, wounded, or missing. Today we are exploring this historic site. Some say you can hear the ghostly howls of the wounded and a distant crackle of gunfire and artillery. This haunted battlefield is one of the most well preserved. We respect and remember the hallowed fields of Perryville.

02 Kentucky Campaign of 1862 Confederate Invasion of Kentucky
The Kentucky Campaign was a series of maneuvers and battles in East Tennessee and Kentucky in 1862 during the American Civil War. From June to October, Confederate forces under the commands of Braxton Bragg and Edmund Kirby Smith launched a series of movements to outflank the Union Army of the Ohio and draw the border state of Kentucky into the Confederate States of America. Though the Confederates gained some early successes, their progress was stopped at the Battle of Perryville, leaving Kentucky in Union hands for the rest of the war.
