By this time the rebels had posses

and were in the act Of running it of,
when the Fourth Regulars, with what
few of the First Ohio bad recovered
from the first charge, made another
aud more successful charge, recapturing
most Of our men, together with the train
and several of the edemy. But FIVE of M

those that was retaken that Joel Harris
was wounded, but was taken away with
the others. l have not been able to get
any further information in regard to
them since. Nothing more of impor-
tance occurred to our regiment during
this day. But in connection with this
tragic affair, were some hughable scenes
enacted, one of which | must relate as
a closing scene.
The principal actor was one Of Co
H, aud three others whom we vii
call, Reb, Secesh and Ranger, who were
in full pursuit Of John and seemed ben
on capturing him alive ifpossible. Blu
John being mounted on his favoritC
animal, of whose speed he had frequent
ly boosted, was going at railroad speed
closely followed by Secesh, Ringer ant
Reb, all approaching a high fence, oil
the other side of which was nice
smooth, green field, which John deter
:, mined to make if possible by clearing
the fence. This lie accomplished, bu
unfortunately in doing so his saddl
turned and went under, but John, eve
: mindful of his duty and military bear
/, ing, still retained his seat, not in tn
, saddle, but on the horses back, with
out ever los ing his equilibrium or tn
position of a soldier. Finding that hi
pursuers were gaining on him, and tina
a capture was inevitable now, a the sad
die was an impediment to the horse
speed, John concluded to take it a-foo

those ofthe ground and lofty tumbliug

to be nabbed by Mr.. Secesh, who di:
