The prisoners taken were sent to Manassas under charge of Captain O. R. Singleton, of the Eighteenth regiment Mississippi Volunteers, with his company, and Captain W. A. R.

Accompanying this report I enclose an accurate map of the field of battle, and the reports of the immediate commanders. To the latter I would respectfully refer for individual acts of gallantry and patriotism.

The following extract from a letter of the Hon. O. R. Singleton, then a Representative of Mississippi in the United States Congress, in regard to the subject treated, is herewih annexed: Canton, Mississippi, July 14, 1877. In 1860, about the time the ordinance of secession was passed by the Souat fault, and possibly some of the inferences drawn may be incorrect; but every material statement made, I am sure, is true, and if need be, can be, easily substantiated by other persons.

On arrival at Washington I found, as had been anticipated, that my presence there was desired on account of the influence which it was supposed I might exercise with the President (Buchanan) in relation to his forthcoming message to Con

Griffin, drove the foe, fighting desperately, back to Ball's Bluff on the river, where the main body surrendered, only a fragment of the imposing invasion escaping down the steep banks and over the river. It will be interesting to read here the report of Lieu. tenant-Colonel Griffin, in which he mentioned the conduct of his men: They did their whole duty. Captains Jayne, Hann, Singleton, Brown, Hill, and Lieutenant Day, in command of the McCluney Rifles, who composed the right wing, behaved most gallantly. Adjutant S. T. Nicholson and Serg.-Maj. O. E. Stuart were active in the performance of their duties. Lieutenant Bostwick, of the Hann Rifles, was seriously wounded while charging with his company on the enemy's battery. Capt. A. P.
