mming down a cartridge, the North Carolina lieutenant in command actually riding up to him, and placing his pistol at his head, before he surrendered. The curses of this man upon his Yankee comrades, for their cowardice, were loud and deep. The skirmish happened just at the bridge over Back River. It had been broken down, and the fugitives had to cross upon planks. In the act of crossing they were subjected to a full volley, which must have done considerable damage, as a preacher who came into Major R.'s camp, from Hampton, reports that they brought in a wagon load of wounded and dead. I could not learn the name of the North Carolina officer who commanded the detachment. Lieut. John M. West commanded the Howitzers present on the occasion. He acted with great coolness and intrepidity, and received a ball through his hat. Eighteen more of us have been ordered to join the Major. I am still left behind. But we all hope our turn will soon come. Nobody on our side was hurt.
