On the 13th of August, 1864, General Burnside was granted a leave of absence; he never rejoined the corps, but was succeeded by General Parke. who remained in command until the close of tile war.

By this time the divisions lad become so reduced in numbers that a reorganization of tile corps became necessary, and so the regiments in White's Division were transferred to the divisions of Potter and Willcox. Under this arrangement Willcox's Division was numbered as the First;
20 missing; at the Mine Explosion, July 30, 1864, 11 killed, 24 wounded, and 18 missing; and at the Weldon Railroad, August 19, 1864, 7 killed, 12 wounded, and 1 missing.

It is touching a tiger's cubs to get on that road! They will not stand it. Warren had a severe fight yesterday at midday, but they could not get him off.
