In his official report of the capture of the place, General Jackson says: Lieutenant-Colonel Walker opened a rapid enfilade fire from all his batteries at about one thousand yards range. In an hour the enemy's fire seemed to be silenced, and the batteries of General Hill were ordered to cease their fire, which was the signal for storming the works. General Pender had commenced his advance, when the enemy again opening, Pegram and Crenshaw moved forward their batteries, and poured a rapid fire into the enemy. The white flag was now displayed, and shortly afterwards Brigadier-General White, with a garrison of eleven thousand and ninety men, surrendered as prisoners of war. On the capitulation of the post, Pegram was enabled to refit his battery thoroughly from the vast quantity of captured munitions of war, and moved with Walker's Battalion up

He begged me not to take offence, but to think for a moment and count up with him the number of officers who had fallen in Jackson's corps, and especially in the Light Division since he had joined us, and then to think who these men were whom we had lost. He went on to recount the list, including Jackson himself, Gregg, Paxton, and Pender, and many regimental officers with whom he had become well acquainted, and then he said, don't you see your system leeds upon itself? You cannot, he said, fill the places of these men. Your men do wonders, but every time at a cost you cannot afford. The Army of Northern Virginia did even greater wonders after this conversation, for it fought through Grant's campaign of 1864 in which it placed hors de combat a number of the enemy equal to its entire numerical strength at the commencement
