m with firm reliance, based on their gallant exhibition thus far made, of indomitable courage and great military skill. The enemy will try your powers of endurance, but we believe with no better success than already experienced. M. Lovell, Major-General Commanding. To Brig.-Gen. J. K. Duncan, Commanding Fort Jackson. Gen. Duncan's reply to Major-General Lovell runs thus: Fort Jackson, April 23, 1862. I have to report this morning same upon same. The bombardment is still going on furiously. They have kept it up furiously by reliefs of three divisions. One of their three masked gunboats painted gray, came above the point this morning, but was struck and retreated. We are hopeful, in good spirits, and I cannot speak in too high praise of all my officers and men. No further casualties to report. Let the people have faith and fortitude and we will not disgrace them. J. K. Duncan, Brigadler-General. To Major-General Nansfield Lovell, Commanding Department of Louisiana.
