Stonewall) was in reserve, as also were five of the six brigades of Hill's division, which were successively formed on the enemy's left of the road. Winder's reserve brigade was formed a little to the left of Branch, who was followed by Archer, Pender, Stafford, and Field. The Second Massachusetts, Twenty-seventh Indiana, and four companies Third Wisconsin (of my brigade), and the Tenth Maine. On our left we had two brigades preparing to charge through the cornfield upon three brigades amine the details of our own movements. We have seen the condition of Banks's line when skirmishers from the Second Massachusetts of my brigade were seen coming into action, and we can, from the official reports of Jackson and Branch, Archer and Pender, know exactly the force of the enemy that confronted us. It was about half-past 5 o'clock in the afternoon, when General Williams, my division commander, sent me an order to observe him, and when he made a signal by waving his handkerchief, to

The enemy poured regiment after regiment upon our lines. General Banks evidently had no idea of the immense number of Rebels in his front. They had a continuous line from the road up to Gordon's right, which they overlapped so far that it would seem as if Pender's (Rebel) brigade was out of musket-range. As further evidence of Banks's ignorance of the field, the forces, and the management of his troops, we find in General Pope's letter to the committee, that when he was hastening to the field, supposing of course that the enemy had attacked Banks, and that he was still holding his position, I received, when near the field, word from him that he was driving the enemy, which information I at once communicated to Ricketts' division.
