Marker Text:

"Jan. 2, 1863. 1/2 mile north is the hillock commanding a ford over Stone's River. Here Capt. John Mendenhall, 4th US Artillery, artillery officer on Gen. Crittenden's staff, set a groupment of 58 guns which broke up the assault across the river of Maj. Gen. John C. Breckenridge's Confederate Division. Tablets on the spot give details."
