arson loses seven. Terrill and Webster and Jackson successively fall, and the division is irretrievably driven back. Starkweather moves to the assistance of the broken columns, but under the driving blows of Maney and Stewart, following the movemenell be related here which occurred about the same time. The sun was about setting, Jackson's line had been broken and Starkweather had placed Stone and Bush on the crest of the hill covering the approach from a cornfield extending a quarter of a milroached within a few paces of the battery which had been silenced, they met an enfilading fire from the left, possibly Starkweather's Brigade; the command was ordered to lie down. They were then ordered to load and pour a volley into the soldiers enthose hills of Doctor and Chaplin creeks, the storming of those batteries defended by such brigades as Gooding led, or Starkweather commanded, without a feeling of pride as Americans both?

een under fire. Consequently, McCook had placed Rousseau's division in front; but during the march it was intersected by Jackson, and its third brigade, under Starkweather, found itself in the rear. The Federal line was thus formed-Crittenden on the extreme right, beyond the reach of sight and sound; on the right of the Springfirill's brigade in front and Webster's in reserve.

The Confederates were masters of all the positions occupied by McCo

rnful evening gathered around the bivouac-fires, counting the number of comrades either dead or wounded, whom they had left among the thick bushes of the cedar wood, anxiously asked each other what the next day would bring forth. No rations were distributed; and what alarmed them most in this want of provisions and ammunition was the idea they had formed that the army was surrounded and separated from its base of operations. In short, with the exception of the two brigades of Walker and Starkweather, which had rejoined the army at the close of the day, there was not a single regiment but what had been seriously engaged, and no assistance from any fresh troops could be relied upon for the morrow. More than seven thousand men were missing at roll-call; Sheridan had lost one-third of his division; two division generals, Wood and Van Cleve, were wounded; three brigade commanders, Sill, Schaeffer and Roberts, had been killed; a fourth, Kirk, was wounded, and a fifth, Willich, taken priso
