we're engaged against $4,000 Of the beS

They fought ValiantlY until they felt the
cold steel, when they took to their heeIs

Scarcely hundred yards we're between
the febels and the guns, When cur skirmisb
fire became silent The lads of the 9th

long range Of mDsket barrels came to one
level, and one terrible To ley tore through

another level, the order to charge with the
bsyonet was given, and away went the two
regiments with one glad cheer.
Gallant az our foes undoubtedly we're,
they could not stand that.
But few brigsdes mentioned in history
have done better than this did. For space
which was generally estimated st three
fourths Of mile, they advanced under ere
Of q sPlendidly served battery, and with a
cloud Of administers stretched across their
front whose fire was very destructive, and
if after thst the rebels had not the nerve

need not be wondered st that they broke
and fed in complete panic. 7b
