The Daily Dispatch: September 21, 1863., [Electronic resource], article 3 (search)
polished boots and immaculate linen. I learned, however, that many have made arrangements to enter the service under the late call of the President. No city of its population has contributed more of personnel and material to this war than Augusta. It contains an extensive hospital, in operation, and another in course of preparation. It accommodates from three to four hundred sick and wounded soldiers, a majority of whom are at present from Charleston. The Surgeon in charge is Dr. Lewis D. Ford, assisted by Surgeon J. A. Pleasants and Assistant-Surgeon Jones. Dr. Pleasants is from Virginia, and a near relative of the late John Hampden Pleasants, of the Richmond. Whig His numerous friends in the old Commonwealth will be pleased to learn that he abandoned an extensive practice in Columbus, Ga., where he located, and promptly tendered his services on the breaking out of the war, since which time he has served the country with credit to himself and usefulness to his fellow soldiers.

Gen. De Corsey, each with a very large force. Others thought the forces were mere detachments from the commands named, and not very formidable in numbers — certainly not strong enough to take the position, had it been bravely defended. Our forces in the Gap were estimated at something like 3,000, about 1,800 of whom were captured, the balance making their escape. Col. Slemp, of the 64th, escaped with all his Captains except one, and all his Lieutenants except three or four, and about 100 privates. Capt. Wynn was taken. Lieut.-Col. Pridemore escaped. Since the above was written, we learn that we had a large amount of bacon and wheat at the Gap, and 100 beef cattle. At 11 on Wednesday Gen. Frazier received a dispatch from Gen. Jones, directing him to hold the position at all hazards, and that necessary reinforcements and supplies would reach him in due time. At three that afternoon the white flag was raised, in opposition to the sentiments and wishes of the whole command.
