sin regiment; Captains Cary, Williams, Abbott and Goodwin, and Lieutenant Perkins, of the Second Massachusetts.
These are some of the names to be remembered as heroes — men who have died that our country may survive.
I carried into action less than one thousand five hundred men. I lost in about thirty minutes about four hundred and sixty-six killed, wounded and missing. I refer specially to the reports of Colonels of regiments appended.
My Staff, Captain H. B. Scott, A. A.G., Captain Chas. F. Wheaton and Lieutenant Robert Shaw, Aids-de-camp, rendered me especial service in my movements.
I owe them many thanks for their labors and coolness under this terrific fire.
I am, sir, with great respect, truly your ob't servant, Geo. H. Gordon, Brigadier-General Commanding Third Brigade, First Division, Second Army Corps, Army of Virginia.
