Book excerpt: "Personal record of the Thirteenth Regiment" is a military memoir by commander Brigadier General Alfred J. Vaughan (1830 – 1899). He was an American civil engineer, planter, soldier, and writer. He served as a Confederate general during the American Civil War. He raised a company of fellow Mississippians for service, however, the state was unable to arm and equip them, so Vaughan led them north to Moscow, Tennessee. There his men (dubbed the "Dixie Rifles") were added to the 13th Tennessee Infantry Regiment, and Vaughan entered the Confederate Army as its captain.
