The enemy made several Attempts dur.

Capt. Knapp, ofC T. slightly wounded
in the head on the 18th inst, left the
field only by my advice, and returned TO
duty on the 4th.
Of the conduct of the Regiment on all
occasions, cannot speak too highly. CAL
led so recently from their homes, to such
bloody discipline, the officers and men Of
the regiment, have evinced courage and
an endurance worthy of veterans. Our
|
losses have been heavy, but we trust our
sacrifices have not been in vain.
