ed forward. . . . We think we are gaining ground upon the Rebels, not merely because we are not losing it (at first we were content with that), but because we beat them generally in the skirmishes. But it is very hard to learn the truth about these little fights; some men talk one way, some the other, and one can rarely tell which to believe . . . . I don't wish to be shot in a skirmish or on picket, but in a real fight, if I am to be hit again . . . . The fighting yesterday [at Oak Grove] was quite severe, and the loss quite heavy; but we still hold our advanced position. To-day our part of the lines has been quiet; but there has been very heavy cannonading, and probably a severe battle on our right in Porter's corps [Mechanicsville]. It is rumored that he has driven back Stonewall Jackson, and turned the left flank of the enemy; and all our camps have rung with cheers since dark. But the Rebel bands are playing away vigorously in front, perhaps for a reported victory; p

nt to Virginia in 1861, and for the greater part of that year was in North Carolina. When Colonel Wright became brigadier-general, he appointed Girardey his adjutant-general with the rank of captain. In the spring of 1862, when the great army was being concentrated at Richmond to attack McClellan and raise the siege of that city, General Wright's brigade formed a part of the gallant host. On the morning of Wednesday, June 25th, a large Federal force advanced against Wright's position at Oak Grove or King's schoolhouse, but was repulsed, and General Wright, in giving his report of the affair, said: I was greatly assisted during the entire day's fight by my assistant adjutant-general, Capt. V. J. B. Girardey, whose coolness, courage and daring intrepidity throughout the hottest of the fight entitle him to receive the warmest commendation of the department. Again, in his report of the operations of his brigade during the Seven Days, General Wright said: I am again called upon to ack
