Marker reads, The L&N R.R. bridge near here, a main USA supply line between Louisville and Bowling Green, was destroyed by Confederate troops in late 1861. Before repairs were complete, Morgans Raiders burned it Dec. 5, 1861. This act brought Morgans daring to public eye. A year later Morgan again burned the trestle and stockade, taking 93 prisoners of 91st Ill. Vol.
