s they are officially reported were, killed, 335; wounded, 1,838. This official list, however, does not include the casualties in the Fifth, Twelfth and Fourteenth regiments. The following field officers, or acting field officers, were killed or mortally wounded: Gen. L. O'B. Branch, Gen. G. B. Anderson, Col. C. C. Tew, and Capts. W. T. Marsh and D. P.

General Hampton in his official report commends the regiment, and especially the squadron commanded by Capt. W.

our front. The Fourteenth and three companies of the Second could not get as far as the other part of the brigade, for they found no troops on their right and the enemy was in force on that flank. Ramseur tried in vain to get his right protected. Colonel Parker, however, returning with the Thirtieth regiment to join him, saw this flanking force, and always prompt and brave, he charged and stayed its progress. Grimes and Cox had now to be withdrawn until reinforcements came. But for Colonel Bennett's coolness and Colonel Parker's charge, Grimes and Cox, after their handsome efforts, would doubtlessly have been captured or severely cut up. The First and Third North Carolina regiments were in Colston's brigade and division. Colonel Warren was in command of Colston's brigade. This brigade was, however, under its fifth commander when Sunday's battle ended. Colonel Warren fell severely wounded, as did in turn his successors, Col. T. V. Williams, Col. John A. McDowell, and Lieut.

of the Fifty-second, J. K. Marshall; Lieut.-Col. H. L. Andrews, whose splendid leadership had encouraged the Second battalion to fight so grimly and lose so terribly; Lieut.-Col. M. T. Smith, the Ghristian soldier whose quiet example of conscientious discharge of duty left a lasting impression on the Fifty-fifth regiment; Maj. E. A. Ross, a hard fighter and earnest friend. Among the wounded field officers were Cols. J. K. Connally, C. Leventhorpe, T. S. Kenan, S. D. Lowe, F. M. Parker, R. T. Bennett; Lieut.-Cols. J. R. Lane, S. H. Boyd, R. D. Johnston, M. A. Parks, and W. J. Green, acting aide to General Pettigrew; Majs. A. H. Belo, J. R. Winston, J. M. Hancock, H. G. Lewis, D. W. Hurtt, C. C. Blacknall; Adjts. T. C. James and J. B. Jordan, and perhaps others equally brave whom the records do not mention. Several of these officers, like the gallant colonel of the Forty-third, T. S. Kenan, had not only the ill fortune to be wounded, but had added to it the misfortune of spending th

In this extremity, Colonel Bennett, Fourteenth North Carolina, offered to take his regiment from left to right, under a sever works in front of Harris' brigade, which he held unto the last. For this all honor is due Colonel Bennett and the gallant officers and men of his regiment. To Colonels Parker, Cox, Grimes and BennBennett, to the gallant officers and patriotic men of my little brigade, the country owes much for the successful charge, which I verily believe turned the fortune of the day at that point in our favor.

y, General Ramseur was among those whose conduct was especially commended to my notice by Lieutenant-General Jackson, in a message sent to me after he was wounded. At Gettysburg he rendered invaluable service at the critical period on the first day when Iverson was repulsed, turned the enemy's flank and gained possession of the town. His skill and gallantry were commended by Rodes and Ewell. During the terrific fighting of May, 1864, he, with his brigade of heroes led by Parker, Grimes, Bennett and Cox, rendered services which received the thanks of Ewell and Lee upon the field. At first in reserve, he moved at double-quick on May 7th to meet the advance of Burnside, who sought to cut off the Second corps, and drove back the enemy's line of battle half a mile. On the night of the same day by another rapid movement he saved Humphreys' right flank from a similar attack. Immediately after Hancock's successful attack on the morning of May 12th at the bloody angle, he was ordered to
