Gilmer commanded the main body of the regiment, the three companies above specified being under my own direction. We, fortunately, have no killed or wounded in the regiment to report. I am, sir, very respectfully, your obedient servant, W. P. Carlin, Colonel 38th Illinois Volunteers. An eye-witness gives the following details of the engagement:-- Fredericktown, Mo., Oct. 22, 1861.

Last Sunday the order was issued for the troops stationed at Pilot Knob to march on Fredericktown, the rebels suppose

At almost the first fire private McFarren, of Company D,. was killed. The enemy, in ten minutes after this, appeared in front of our position, to the south, at a distance of half a mile, in the

Orders were received by me to have the Second New York and First Minnesota regiments of infantry at Edwards' Ferry, on Monday, the 21st ins

I had been on deck most of the time during the night; had left it but a short time previously, and was lying in my birth
