He fell on the field, but it is thought is safe Colonel Cummings came near being captured, the enemy dashing upon him; but the brave officer moved on and met his regiment with his cand success of Col.

We then fell back and retired from the field, having piled the ground with the fallen enemy in such numbers that they quelled at the shock of the victory they claimed — sad victory for the Northern army, Indeed. When we consider that our little army marched forty-six miles from Winchester within ten days before, baggage trains and off, and then made a force march on the next day and a half of forty miles, arriving at the scene of action word down and hungry; while the enemy were Irish--had all the advantage ground, a picked position, and six or seven to our one, the wonderful fight which our men made seems beyond all parallel — Had our enemies been in our condition and we in theirs, it is evident that their whole army would have been overthrown.

The Rockingham company, under Lieut Huston, fought with great determination, officers and men, and won for themselves a name of which Rockingham may be proud. They maintained their ground in the face of immense odds. Sergeant Joseph Hansburger, who was twice wounded, it is though, was captured in an ambulance while being carried from the field. Adam Wise was killed. Thomas Middle. George Shipp, and Preston armentrout, were wounded and captured Let those in Rockingham who wish to assist in defence of their homes enlist in this noble company.

Cummings commanding, was on the right of the 27th, and held the enemy's centre during the battle. The 21 Regiment, Col. Allen was in position, and fought with tremendous power — the Colonel waving a cartoon ball over his head, and dashing on, it is said, cheering his men through the leaden rain. The 5th Regiment, with equal determination, Col. Harman commanding fought with undaunted courage. Other regiments were at their posts. The 4th. Lt.
