At dawn on December 31, 1862, General [[J. P. McCown]]’s Division with General [[Patrick Cleburne]]’s men in support stormed across the frosted fields to attack the Federal right flank. Their plan was to swing around the Union line in a right wheel and drive their enemy back to the Stones River while cutting off their main supply routes at the Nashville Pike and the Nashville & Chattanooga Railroad.
