Report of Captain Elijah W. Peck, Sixth Indiana Cavalry.

HEADQUARTERS,
Olympian Springs, Ky., October 11, 1863.

SIR: Agreeable to your orders, I proceeded with my command to this place, where I found one of the barns destroyed by the rebels. Taking their trail, we pursued them to Green Wade's, passing by the ruins of Mr. Hall's (a Union man) residence.

I ordered Green Wade's house, and those belonging to two other rebels, to be burned.

Lieutenant Cushman here joined us, when we proceeded in the direction of West Liberty, which place we made the following day.

Owing to the darkness, and my guide losing his way, we lost the trail of the rebels and were unable to find it again.
