ollege, I received an order from General Longstreet to move to Fort Magruder and support Brigadier General Anderson, who had command of the troops engaged with the enemy. My command was immediately put into motion, and I sent my aide, Lieutenant S. H. Early, forward, to inform General Anderson of my approach, and ascertain where my troops were needed. Lieutenant Early soon returned with the information that General Anderson was, not at Fort Magruder, having gone to the right, where his trooLieutenant Early soon returned with the information that General Anderson was, not at Fort Magruder, having gone to the right, where his troops were engaged, but that General Stuart, who was in charge at the fort, requested that four of my regiments be moved into position on the right of it and two on the left. As I was moving on to comply with his request and had neared Fort Magruder, General Longstreet himself rode up and ordered me to move the whole of my command to a position which he pointed out, on a ridge in a field to the left and rear of the Fort, so as to prevent the enemy from turning the position in that direction, and t

Report of Brigadier-General Early. headquarters Fourth brigade, Third division, August 14, 1862. Captain G. C. Brown, Assistant Adjutant-General, Third Division: Captain: I have thwoods to the left. General Winder was met with the head of his column just crossing the branch of Cedar Creek, half a mile in my rear. A short time after Lieutenant Early was sent to General Winder, I sent Major A. L. Pitzer, a volunteer Aid, to ask that some pieces of artillery should be sent up. Before this request could be y exhibited by Colonel Taliaferro, of the Twenty-third Virginia regiment, who I saw urging his men on. My staff officers, Major P. Hall, A. A. General, Lieutenant S. H. Early, A. D. C., and Major A. L. Pitzer, volunteer A. D. C., displayed great courage and energy in carrying my orders under fire, and in rallying and encouragin

At 12 M., we commenced our cannonading, which was feebly responded to by the enemy, who did not seem ready for the engagement, which they had affected to challenge. Indeed, some strategy seemed necessary to bring them to fight. About 3 P. M. Gen. Early's brigade (Ewell's division) made a circuit through the woods, attacking the enemy on their right flank, the 13th Virginia regiment being in the advance as skirmishers. At 4 o'clock the firing began, and soon the fight became general. As Gen.was so, they gained nothing, for Gen. Jackson, having determined not to hazard a battle with the vastly superior forces the enemy would have, also occupied the time to purpose, sending backward all his trains and his rear troops; and at nightfall Early's brigade, which was the outpost, quietly followed them, hugging closely the mountain till well out of danger of attack. Never was a retreat effected with better order. Strategically, it ranked with the masterly march and unexpected attack. Ou
