I beg leave particularly to call the attention of the commanding General to the conduct of Generals Emory and Dwight, which was admirable in all respects. I regret to report the loss of Colonel L. Benedict, One Hundred and Sixty-second New York volunteers, killed while leading his brigade, and of Captain Chapman, of my staff, who had both feet taken off by a round shot. Brigadier-General Ransom was severely wounded while commanding his troops in the first action.
