wounded and captured; the killed, 153, and the wounded, 794, being equally divided between Bell's, Mabry's and Crossland's brigades. The Seventh Tennessee mourned the loss of Captains Statler and Charlie Claiborne; the Second, of Capt. J. M. Eastes, Lieuts. J. E. Dunning, A. H. French and A. W. Lipscomb. The Fifteenth lost Capt. J. M. Fields and Lieut. T. Hawkins; the Sixteenth, Lieut. S. C. Kennedy and Ensign Thomas Paine; the Nineteenth, Capt. W. D. Stratton, Lieuts. W. T. Hallis and J. P. Meeks. In Morton's battery, Lieut. Joseph H. Mayson, Sergt. John H. Dunlap and Corporal Bellanfant were wounded, and within a few minutes five of the seven cannoneers of Sergeant Brown's piece were seriously wounded. Other gallant men should be mentioned, but official reports of casualties are meager. The Federal garrison at Memphis was attacked by General Forrest at 4 a. m. of the 21st of August, 1864, and by his quick and bold assault he captured 400 prisoners and 300 horses and mules.
