The Daily Dispatch: June 9, 1862., [Electronic resource], article 1 (search)
ederalists were brought to town, who verify our report, adding that the firing of the Texans was so accurate, and their movements to the woods so cunning and Indian-like, that they never wish to make their acquaintance again. The Yankees had the same report to make of Hood's brigade at West Point, where these same brave boys drove them, ignominiously, to their gunboats. We learn that among the men of the brigade detail, (some 40), perhaps, in number not more than five or six were hit--one of the 4th and 5th being wounded, and one of the 1st regiment (D. D. Davis) killed. This gentleman, who untimely fell in the gallant skirmish of yesterday, was editor and proprietor of the Parts (Lamar, co. Tense.) Press, and was of brilliant parts, a good soldier, and had rendered our common cause much good as a soldier and scribe. He was not detailed to go with the working party yesterday, but being of an adventurous turn of mind, volunteered, as he had frequently done on previous occasions.
