pidly, and as it commenced to descend the hill opposite the ridge upon which the enemy was posted, it encountered a most terrific fire of grape and shell on the left flank, and grape and musketry in front, but still it pressed forward at a double quick, until the bottom was reached, a distance of about seventy-five yards from the enemy's fortified position. Here the fire was most severe; every field officer, with one exception, was either killed or wounded. General Scales and Assistant Adjutant General Riddick were disabled by severe wounds. The brigade halted to return this fire of the enemy, throwing in confusion somewhat the line. Major-General Pender, with portions of his staff, and General Scales, though suffering much from a severe wound in the leg, succeeded in rallying the brigade, which immediately pushed forward again, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Gordon, Thirty-fourth North Carolina troops, and joined the pursuit of the enemy, driving him through Gettysburg.

They left their camp on Wednesday night at 10 o'clock, and in about four hours were in one mile of Suffolk, when the Captain drew his pistol and shot himself twice through the body — fell from his horse, ran a short distance, and then shot himself through the head. He never spoke afterwards, dying in a few minutes. An inquest was held by Mayor Riddick on Thursday morning, and a verdict rendered according to the above testimony. Capt.
