llery. The enemy was repulsed, and retired behind the crest of a hill, from which they kept up a desultory fire. General R. H. Anderson's division came to Hill's support, and formed in rear of his line. At this time, by a mistake of orders, General Rodes's brigade was withdrawn from its position during the temporary absence of that officer at another part of the field. The enemy immediately pressed through the gap thus created, and G. B. Anderson's brigade was broken, and retired--General Anderson himself being mortally wounded. Major-General R. H. Anderson and Brigadier-General Wright were also wounded and borne from the field. The heavy masses of the enemy again moved forward, being opposed only by four pieces of artillery, supported by a few hundreds of men, belonging to different brigades, rallied by General D. H. Hill and other officers, and parts of Walker's and R. H. Anderson's commands--Colonel Cooke, with the Twenty-seventh North-Carolina regiment, of Walker's brigad

rom the Twenty-sixth, Twelfth, and Third, and a few under Major Hobson, of the Fifth, not more than forty in all, the brigade had disappeared from this portion of the field. This small number, together with some Mississippians and North Carolinians, about one hundred and fifty in all, I rallied and stationed behind a small ridge leading from the Hagerstown road. General G. B. Anderson still nobly held his ground; but the Yankees began to pour through the gap made by the retreat of Rodes. Anderson himself was mortally wounded, and his brigade was totally routed. Colonel Bennett, of the Fourteenth, and Major Sillers, of the Thirtieth North Carolina regiments, rallied a portion of their men. There were no troops near to hold the centre, except a few hundred rallied from various brigades. The Yankees crossed the old road, which we had occupied in the morning, and occupied a cornfield and orchard in advance of it. They had now got within a few hundred yards of the hill, which command
