60th Indiana Volunteer Infantry

I am seeking primary source material re: the 60th Indiana Volunteer Infantry's role in the Texas Overland Campaign of October-Novermber 1863. Particularly, I am seeking information about the regiment's role at the Battle of Bayou Bourbeau (Grand Coteau), Louisiana, on November 3, 1863. The unit, on the right flank of the Union line, bore the brunt of an attack by three Confederate infantry regiments.

The 60th Indiana was part of the 1st Brigade (Col. Richard Owen), 4th Division (Brig. Gen. Stephen Gano Burbridge), XIII Army Corps (Maj. Gen. Cadwalader C.
Washburn).

Thank you in advance!
