he drove two Federal squadrons into the river, capturing a number of prisoners. He and his men were commended both by Generals Lee and Stuart as deserving the highest praise for distinguished bravery. In the famous battle of Brandy Station, June 9, 1863, after W. H. F. Lee was wounded and Col. Sol Williams killed, Chambliss took command of the brigade, and served in that capacity during the fighting about Aldie and Middleburg. Then riding with Stuart into Pennsylvania, he made a brilliant atberland, destroying an immense amount of public and railroad property. Then joining Stuart with his splendid brigade, he bore the first shock, and both in morning and evening the brunt of battle, in the famous cavalry fight of Brandy Station, June 9, 1863, his brigade ending the fight with more horses and more and better small-arms than at the beginning, and capturing two regimental colors, a battery of three pieces and about 250 prisoners.

killed were the following officers from North Carolina: Cols. J. T. Purdie, J. C. S. McDowell; Lieut.-Cols. C. C. Cole, J. L. Hill, and Maj. L. Odell. In the list of wounded were Gens. R. F. Hoke, S. D. Ramseur; Cols. T. M. Garrett, T. F. Toon, W. R. Cox, A. M. Scales, W. M. Barbour, C. M. Avery, E. G. Haywood; Lieut.-Cols. J. W. Lea, R. V. Cowan, W. H. A. Speer, Forney George, J. B. Ashcraft; Majs. M. McR. McLauchlin, W. G. Morris, W. L. Davidson, T. W. Mayhew; Adjt. Ives Smedes. On June 9, 1863, at Fleetwood, near Brandy Station, the greatest cavalry engagement of the war occurred. The Union forces, numbering about 10,000 men, under General Pleasanton, attacked General Stuart, commanding the Confederate cavalry, which numbered nearly the same as the Union horsemen. Stuart was caught between the columns of Buford and Gregg, and drove back each in turn in a magnificent battle, in which both sides fought earnestly and courageously. General Hampton led the First North Carolina in

antly identified. He fought with his regiment at Frederick City, Md., and in defense of the South Mountain passes; took part in the battle of Sharpsburg, and subsequently skirmished with the enemy at Williamsport. During the many cavalry affairs that preceded and followed the battles of Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville, he rendered valuable service. Particularly at the battle of Fleetwood Hill, preceding the movement into Pennsylvania, he displayed his soldierly qualities. Here, on June 9, 1863, in command of his regiment and supported by the Jeff Davis legion, he charged upon the enemy, and after what may truly be said to have been in point of the number of men who crossed sabers, the most important hand-to-hand contest of cavalry in the war, drove the Federals from their position. At Upperville he was again distinguished, and it was to his regiment that Hampton turned in the moment of greatest peril, drawing his saber and crying, First North Carolina, follow me! The regimen

promoted to third lieutenant in the fall of 1862, and subsequently became first lieutenant, serving as such to the close of the war. During the last year he was in command of his company. He took an active part in the battles of Brandy Station, June 9th and August 1, 1863; Gettysburg, Funkstown, Upperville, Hanover, and numerous small engagements, and was once slightly wounded. Since the war he has devoted his attention to journalism. He revived the Laurens Herald in October, 1865, and has beFrederick City, Md., and in the battles of Harper's Ferry and Sharpsburg; and in the numerous cavalry engagements in the valley of the Shenandoah in the fall of 1862. In the campaign of 1863 he was engaged in the battles of Brandy Station (9th of June, 1863), Upperville, Rockville, Westminster, Hanover, Pa., and the second and third days at Gettysburg, and the numerous cavalry engagements succeeding that battle.
