I recollect that a facetious private in one of our companies (poor fellow, he fell at Gaines's Mill in 1862, bravely doing his duty) remarked in reference to this letter, which was read out on dress parade, I do not like it at all. It means you are good fellows, and there is more bloody work for you to do. It is preparatory to butting our heads against those stone walls down about Arlington. I would rather exchange our Minnie muskets for old flint-locks, and get no compliments from the Generals, and then, perhaps, we might be sent back to Orange Court-house, to guard the sick and wou

At Gaines's Mill two others of the brothers were instantly killed and fell side M. on Friday, June 27th, and before the attack on the enemy at Gaines's Mill.
