NP, MAP 6/9/1862

From the Memphis Appeal
 
June 9, 1862
 
   The "Avalanche," of Saturday morning last, announces that all the railroads have stopped running to Memphis. The Memphis & Charleston road has been badly injured, and ????. The rolling stock of both the other roads was entirely removed, with the exception of two locomotives, which were so badly injured as to render it impossible to remove them. On the Mississippi & Tennessee road, the bridge across Nonconah creek was destroyed about noon on Friday, and trains only run up as far as Horn Lake.
