Among the officers conspicuous in leading this assault were Adjutant Hezcock, Captains Burke, Miller, Maunter, Maurice, and Richardson, and Lieut. Howard, all of the First Missouri. There were others of the First Kansas and First Iowa who participateoughed up a terrible dust within fifteen feet of where I was standing.

Major Schofield had a few of his whiskers trimmed off by a passing bullet, but was otherwise uninjured.
