ed to gather the most authentic material, and to present it, I trust, in a manner acceptable to my readers. To Colonel R. N. Scott, of the United States Army, in charge of the publication of the Official Records of the Warof the Rebellion, both of the Union and Confederate Armies, I render thanks for an opportunity to examine advance sheets of the strength and losses of the Federal and Confederate armies in the battle of Cedar Mountain, and the official reports of that battle. From Colonel Allan's valuable work, recently published, --Jackson's Valley Campaign, --I have made extracts, for which credit is duly given. I further acknowledge my obligations to this gentleman for his permission to copy those maps in his volume which represent the routes of Jackson and Ewell from Swift Run Gap in .the movement against Banks, and the battles of Kernstown and Mac-Dowell It may not be necessary to assert that I have not so much attempted to point out how the skill of General Lee and t

th, and 33d Virginia regiments. The second brigade (Burks's) consisted of the 21st, 42d, 48th Virginia and the Irish battalion; the third brigade consisted of the 23d and 37th Virginia regiments (Fulkerson). See Jackson's Valley Campaign, by William Allan, p. 39. Whatever may have been Jackson's force, we knew he could increase it from Manassas, or from further south. The disposition of our command was as follows: While our brigade moved on and to Charlestown from Harper's Ferry, General Willts brought up. Colonel John Campbell was rapidly advancing with his regiment, but night, and an indisposition of the enemy to pressfurther, had terminated the battle, which commenced at four o'clock P. M. See Jackson's Valley Campaign, by William Allan, 1880. Jackson had promised the people of Winchester that he would return to them. This time he failed to keep his word. His dead, dying, and wounded were left to our care. Too much praise cannot be awarded the Federal troops for their

threaten the Federal flank and rear. This manceuvre, combined with Jackson's success on the other flank, caused the whole to give way. Jackson's Valley Campaign (Allan), pp. 111, 112. In his report General Banks thinks that Trimble's flank movement was abandoned because General Williams, our division commander, sent a detachmentinesville beyond Martinsburg, contenting himself with picking up a good many prisoners. See history of the Campaign of General T. J. (Stonewall) Jackson, by William Allan, p. 115. It remains to consider our losses in this retreat,--first of men, second of material Banks, in his official report of losses on the 24th and 25ryland cavalry that were stationed at Winchester. The loss of the Confederates is given in Jackson's report as 68 killed, 329 wounded, and 3 missing. But to these Allan thinks about 40 should be added, to include Ashby's loss, and that in the Louisiana troops at Front Royal, and in the First Maryland. See Jackson's Valley Campaig
