ts of the enemy, carrying orders, rallying the men, and by every means in their power contributing to the success of the brigade. Captain Paschall was killed early in the action of the first day. He was a brave, noble soldier, an upright gentleman, and carries with him to the grave the love and respect of many friends. Captain Throsseau was missing the evening of the same day, and I believe was captured. Captains Beatty and Cilley had each two horses shot under them. There are many names particularly commended for courage and good behavior, for which I respectfully refer to the reports of the regiments and the battery. We have lost many gallant officers and men, a list of whom is herewith furnished you. In the charge made by the Ninth Ohio, on the nineteenth, which recaptured the battery of the regular brigade, their loss in killed and wounded was over fifty. I am, Captain, very respectfully, your obedient servant, F. Van Derveer, Colonel Commanding Third Brigade.
