the batteries of the First, Third, and Fourth companies (consisting of two three-inch rifles and one ten-pounder Parrot gun, under Captain Squiers, Lieutenants Galbraith and Brown, first company; two twelve-pounder light Napoleon guns, under Captain Miller and Lieutenant McElroy, third company; and two twelve-pounder howitzers and two twelve-pounder light Napoleon guns, under Captain Eshleman, Lieutenants Norcom, Battles, and Apps, fourth company) were placed in position in the redoubts on the to Pickett's division, in reserve, and was not engaged. It is my duty, as it is my pleasure, to say, in behalf of my officers, cannoneers, and drivers, that upon no field during this war have men behaved more gallantly. To Captains Eshleman, Miller, and Squiers, and the brave officers and men under them, is the service indebted for the gallant defence of Marye's Hill against the stubborn and overwhelming assaults of an army of over fifty thousand men. To Lieutenant William M. Owen, my adjut
the siege. Let their names be honored. I desire to record the faithful services of privates Laith, and Stewart, and Bond, of the Gist Guard, South Carolina volunteers, who have remained voluntarily on duty at Battery Wagner almost the entire siege, always attentive and cool under fire. Stewart would make an excellent commissary, and Laith, a practical and hard-working ordnance officer. Lieutenant R. M. Stiles, engineer corps, creditably performed the duties assigned to him. Lieutenant Miller, Company A, Second South Carolina artillery, was distinguished for his courage, and for his cheerfulness, which was not diminished by a slight wound on the knee, and by being stunned for half an hour. To Major Bryan, of General Beauregard's staff, who volunteered as my Adjutant-General, I am under the greatest obligations. Although, at the time I was ordered to Morris Island to assume command of the forces there, he had a furlough to visit his father in Georgia, who was very ill, h

C. Arnett commanding, to the support of the cavalry, then within three miles of the enemy. At half-past 1 o'clock A. M., on the morning of the fourth, I received orders from Brigadier-General Fagan, to advance on the Little Rock road with my regiment, Captains Denson's, Miller's and------companies of cavalry, and the section of artillery; make a feint on the south of Helena; attract the attention of the enemy in that direction, hold the force in the rifle-pits south of the town, and operate otherwise as I could. Before reaching Beech Grove, I withdrew the cavalry advance, and deploying skirmishers, met the enemy's infantry and cavalry pickets at day-break. A sharp skirmish ensued, in which three of the enemy were killed and six captured. The company of cavalry
eral Jones, and had gone on the Carter's Valley road to within five miles of Rogersville, when I learned that Colonel Giltner had not gone on down further than C. C. Miller's, eight miles east of Rogersville. I immediately about-faced and went back to the road leading from the Carter's Valley road to the old stage road, coming out at Mr. C. C. Miller's, where Colonel Giltner was understood to be. When I turned back I was about four miles from C. C. Miller's (or Yellow Store), but when I got there all of the brigade under Giltner had passed along, except the artillery (Lowery's battery) and the rear guard. I went on after Colonel Giltner, passing about hC. C. Miller's (or Yellow Store), but when I got there all of the brigade under Giltner had passed along, except the artillery (Lowery's battery) and the rear guard. I went on after Colonel Giltner, passing about half of his column (the rear half) in motion, and overtook him only a few hundred yards east of Mr. John Shields, six miles east of Rogersville. Colonel Giltner was, at the time, with a portion of two companies of Colonel Carter's First Tennessee cavalry, together with Major Goforth and Captain Fulkerson, in a field on the right
