The Daily Dispatch: December 10, 1864., [Electronic resource], article 1 (search)
eeler fell furiously upon the enemy's rear. The Yankee horsemen who covered the rear were driven back upon their infantry support, and our troops, after considerable fighting, retired. In our fight of Sunday with Kilpatrick's cavalry, assisted by the Fourteenth corps, we repulsed the enemy in every attempt to dislodge us by fire and counter charges, but finally, being flanked, were compelled to retire, which was done in most excellent order. Our loss was between seventy and eighty men. That of the Federals is reported officially as "very heavy. " One of the Yankee officers was captured in a hand-to-hand encounter, and Kilpatrick himself was wounded. On our side, Colonel Gainse, acting brigadier, was severely wounded. The Augusta Constitutionalist says that on Monday last a fight took place at Walker's bridge, on Briar creek, twenty-two miles from Augusta, in which the Federals were worsted. A batch of one hundred and twenty-two Yankee prisoners had arrived in Augusta.
