Hamilton, who was on the main line of their
attack, maintained his ground in all but one
spot, and made an advance, and secured the
center, with two first rate regiments Colonel
Sullivan gave US time to bring our batteries
into action, and saved the day on that side
Van Dorm and Lowell made a most determined
attack on the extreme right on the Chervail
road. They were led to the attack through
the abattis; two of their columns reached the
ditch, and the other two stopped not fifty PAGES
from 1t; all that grape and canister could do
was tried, but when it reached that point
charge was ordered, when it became race
between the Twenty Ohio and the
Eleventh Missouri. This was too much for the
staggered columns Many fell down and held
up their hands for mercy They were badly
beaten on both fronts. They left their dead
and wounded on the field, and are in full re-
treat.
Our loss, though serious, especially in Off
