utler, and a Confederate force under General Beauregard, consisting of three small divisions under Major-General Hoke, Major-General Ransom and Brigadier-General Colquitt, in all ten brigades and three battalions of artillery. The Seventeenth and Twenty-third Tennessee, under Col. R. H. Keeble, the Twenty-fifth and Forty-fourth, under Col. John S. Fulton, and the Sixty-third, under Col. Abraham Fulkerson, constituted Bushrod Johnson's brigade, of Hoke's division. From his headquarters at Drewry's farm, General Beauregard issued orders dated the 5th of May, concentrating his forces at that point, his purpose, as stated, being to cut off the army of the James from its base of operations at Bermuda Hundred, and capture or destroy it. Ransom's division moved out at 4:45 of May 16th, in line of battle, and soon encountering the Federals, carried the enemy's breastworks in his front by 6 a. m., and after resting a moment, reinforced by one of Colquitt's brigades, advanced to the attack.
