The Daily Dispatch: July 21, 1863., [Electronic resource], The Washington Cabinet Proposing an amnesty. (search)
wo citizens were killed, and Lieut Rosany badly wounded. The enemy lost Col. Poland, commanding the brigade, one other Colonel, one Major, and seven privates killed; one Lt. Colonel, and about 25 men wounded, and in our hands. The Lt. Colonel, Powell, is reported mortally wounded. I am informed they lost every one of their field officers. The command left Wytheville about 10 o'clock last night, retreating towards Tazewell Court-house. It is just now reported they are coming down Walker's creek to this place. If they retreat by the way they came they will probably be intercepted and cut up. They paroled on their retreat 75 or 80 of our men, whom, I suppose, they found it inconvenient to carry off. Of course the parole, under such circumstances, is worthless, under their own order. The damage to the railroad can be repaired in an hour or so. The jail, commissary and quartermaster storehouses, and several private houses, were burned. (Signed,) Samuel Jones, Major
