Company 4 has suffered terribly. being

Asa Maddox, the first man shot in the rcgi-

were very severely wound, d. Cppt. Ford ,
though reported wounded was untouched.
Al present we are rncampcI on the ground
which the rebels held against us on WrdHcs-
day. and although we are better of in pro-
visions than we were during the march, yet
we have many dcrrivatious and horrors
around us; for example we slept last night
amidst hundreds of dead rebels, who are
partially dvc"mposed and cause an awful
Stcuch. The battle must have done terrible
destruction among thrm for we have counted
yesterday in II straight line Of no more han a
mile. no less than l l40 dead rebels, yet un-
buried, beside innuncraJle dead horses and
filled graves.
We are in the second brigade, at present
commanded by Col. SchIry, Of French $
Division. Summers Corps
Capt. Fach'z and the Color. Bearer. John
Tut, were the last OF Company TO leave the
field, and then not before our rc-inforccmcntS
