Wright, United States Engineer Corps, with securing if possible the navy yard and property at Portsmouth, with the ships of war then in the harbor, and for that ponroe for such forces as he could spare without jeopardizing the safety of the fort. With Colonel Wardrop's regiment, about three hundred and seventy strong, Colonel Wright proceeded to Norfolk, where they arrived some time after dark on the evening of the 20th. But on reaching the navy yard, Colonel Wright found that Commodore Colonel Wright found that Commodore McCauley, to prevent their seizure by the Virginia forces, had scuttled all the ships except the Cumberland, and Commodore Paulding, who had come on the Pawnee from Washington, determined to finish the destruction of the scuttled ships and to destroy also, as far as possible, the property in the yard.

I will now quote from the report of the Federal commander, Major-General H. G. Wright, commanding the Sixth Corps, Army of the Potomac. After describing the disposition of his troops and our position on the opposite side of Sailor's creek, General Wright says: The 1st and 3rd divisions charged the enemy's positionGeneral Wright says: The 1st and 3rd divisions charged the enemy's position, carrying it handsomely, except at a point on our right of the road crossing the creek, where a column, said to be composed exclusively of the Marine (artillery) brigade and other troops, which had held the lines of Richmond previous to the evacuation, made a counter charge upon that part of our line in their front.
