and my orderlies behaved gallantly. When my horse was shot, Orderly Cook, of the Second Indiana cavalry, replaced him with his own. The officers of the Signal corps were ever ready to perform any service in their line, or as Aids. The report of Surgeon C. McDermot, the Medical Director of the right wing, is also submitted. Surgeon McDermot's gallantry on the field, and his great care of the wounded, is worthy of great praise. My entire medical corps behaved nobly, except Assistant Surgeon W. S. Fish, of the Third Indiana cavalry, who fled to Nashville. He is recommended for dismissal. The casualties of my wing are five hundred and forty killed, and two thousand two hundred and thirty-four wounded. The nation is again called upon to mourn the loss of gallant spirits who fell upon the sanguinary field. First of these, Brigadier-General J. W. Sill, commanding First brigade, Third division. He was noble, conscientious in the discharge of every duty, brave to a fault.
