The writer makes, too, the important admission that the field was claimed by and yielded to the Confederates. He says: Our ambulances and surgeon's assistants were not interrupted, though often within easy musket range. At length Lieut. Elliott Johnston of the Confederate Gen.

Some of our officers at once went up to the Lieutenant, who informed them that by permission of Gen. Stonewall Jackson, they might have till two o'clock to bury the dead.
