The above is as correct list of our cas-
ualties, as we can obtain under the circum-
stances. Most of our wounded have al.
ready been sent off to Northern Ho.pitals.
A few will prove mortal, most of lhcm
however, are doing well. Many of these
men were but slightly wounded aud will in
few weeks return TO their places in the
ranks, some even did not leave the Regi-
ment at all. Some of our missing may
have been killed and fallen into the hands
of the enemy. Some Of them are known
to have been wounded before they fell into
the enemy's hands. The dead that were
buried by u.s. were buried decenty as tho
circumstances would allow, and the graves
carefully marked, that friends can easily
find them. Mag God give grace to tho bo
rcavcd ones to bear these severe Affections
Is the prayer Of your and their friend, &c.
