I ordered a charge up the hill, which, although hotly contested, was successful. All of the officers and men behaved gallantly in this engagement. Capt. Barrett led the charge on the right, and he as well as his men, behaved nobly during the engagement. Capts.

My regiment by your order bivouacked upon this hill, where we remained during the night and rose with the det
tions, which have dense woods behind them. The following is a complete list of the killed and wounded. killed. Charles L. Lord, private, battery C, Massachusetts artillery. Edwin W. Lewis, private, battery C, Massachusetts artillery. I. Ide, Co. E, Berdan's sharpshooters. John Reynolds, private, leg amputated, Weeden's battery. Adam Musser, private, Co.
