The Howitzers at the Bethel Church fight.
We comply with the request of a correspondent, and insert the following complimentary notice of individual members of the Howitzer corps: From a multitude of sources I learn of the calm, cool, determined courage of a little group of our Richmond boys. I beg you will allow a place in your columns for an especial and individual mention of them, who so courageously and so honorably acquitted themselves in the heat of the battle at Bethel Church. Col. Hill, of the North Carolina Regiment, can sustain many in his testimony to their gallant stand in the most exposed position, and under the heaviest cannonading during the engagement. Lieut Hudnall, Geo. Hobson, John Werth, John West, Henry Shook, Geo. Hughes, Sergeant B. Hughes, Frank Botts, John Langhorne, L. W. Timberlake, William McCarthy, William Caldwell, Reuben Pleasants, W. R. Hutcheson, S. Pendleton, and last, though not least, must I make mention of the youngest son of the late Dr. Micajah Clark, whose memory lives so freshly greet, in the hearts of thousands of our citizens. May the God of Jacob bless our Howitzer boys. Amicus.
