enemy, repulsed with great loss in every at
tack, was unsuccessful in every point save that
bastion, the possession of which they still re.
tained-when heard groaning roll and
shake of the earth, and instantly the bastion,
bodies of men, timber, guns, earth and stones,
were blown up into the air like volcano, ma
day. A defending timber dashed one OF my
artillerymen to pieces within foot OF my
shoulder. Profound darkness and silence fol-
lowed. Naught but the groans of the woun-
ded and dying was heard. AS if by mutual
consent, the fighting ceased, and the enemy
withdrew, repulsed on every side, save from
the parapet which they purchased for their
grave. A large quantity of fixed ammunition
had been placed in the lower part, and stray
wad falling upon it, had blown them all up TO-
gether. Ny duty required that l should i'm
mediately repair to the bastion, and most hor-
rible was the sight-bcdies burnt and mutt
lated, some of them still p3lsating with life,
among them Lieut.. Col. Drummond the lead
er of the attack. There he lay in the morn
ing light, stark and stiff, extended on the RAM
part. ball having passed through his breast.
History mourns that his courage assumed the
character of ferocity. His war-cry of "No
quarter to the damned Yankees" his own
death warrant was long remembered against
them. The enemy did not resume the at
tack, but retiring to their entrenched camp,
strengthened their works, and prepared to
make their approach by regular advances. But
come, we have far to ride, spur on. Here we
are upon their works. Here is the stone wa.
ter battery, and there the two strong redoubts,
and back of them the rema ms of their lines,
and entertainments. These are the works
that were carried in the memorable and des-
perate Sortie of Fort Erie. The right by Da.
Wis and Miller, the left by Porter and his vol
unteers.
Here. on the left quoth the Major, fell my
gallant and accomplished friend, Lieut.. Col.
Wood, at the head of his column. He was
one of the most brilliant officers in the service,
and as beautiful as girl. | often gazed with
establishment at the desprate daring that char.
acteriscd him in action, here he fell; he was
bayonetted to death on the ground, on this
spot, and the Majors voice quivered, and he
turned his face from me, for the cruel death Of
his dear friend was too much for his manhood
His ashes sleep beneath their monument neal
the flagstaff at West Point. Peace to hi:
