Lieutenant-Colonel Keith was every where, cheering on his men and directing their movements, and even after his very severe wound, gave them advice and assistance. Major Hayes, while sustaining the very charge of the enemy, wounded early in the action, showed himself worthy of his regiment. The Ninth Connecticut and Fourth Wisconsin regiments being posted in reserve were not brought into action, but held their position. Colonel T. W. Cahill, Ninth Connecticut, on whom the command devolved by the death of the lamented Williams, prosecuted the engagement to its ultimate glorious success, and made all proper dispositions for a further attack.

Birney, on tired regiments in the centre falling back, of his own accord rapidly pushed across to give them a hand to raise themselves to a renewed fight. In early afternoon Gen. Pope's order, per Gen. Roberts, was to send a pretty strong force diagonally to the front, to relieve the centre in woods from pressure. Accordingly I detached on that purpose General Robinson, with his brigade, the Sixty-third Pennsylvania volunteers, Col. Hayes, the One Hundred and Fifth Pennsylvania volunteers, Captain Craig; the Twentieth Indiana, Col. Brown; and, additionally, the Third Michigan Marksmen, under Col. Champlin. General Robinson drove forward for several hundred yards, but the centre of the main body being shortly after driven back and out of the woods, my detachment thus exposed so considerably in front of all others, both flanks in air, was obliged to cease to advance, and confine themselves to holding their own.

rawn up in order, on the road running below the bluffs toward Shepherdstown, under command of Major Hayes. At this moment, and before the other regiments had crossed, Brigadier-General Sykes, who to remain, I would do so. He accordingly gave me the order for that purpose, and desired that Major Hayes, with the Eighteenth Massachusetts, then drawn up in the road, should take position near but op of the ridge, which ran, in its general direction, parallel to the road, and on the left. Major Hayes immediately proceeded to occupy that position. The Twenty-fifth New-York, Colonel Johnson, aving crossed and formed in the road, were directed to take a similar position on the right of Major Hayes; but to reach which, it was necessary to pass beyond the ravine by which the Eighteenth Massamanner below the top of the ridge, the two former on the right, and the latter on the left of Major Hayes, who was already posted there.
