We were ordered to charge them, which
was done with yell, and the rebs again
fell back and we followed them to q creek
which they had crossed and destroyed
the bridge. They again formed line on
the ether side of the creek and opened
FIRE on our forces again, killing the Colo
mel Of the 4th Wisconsin Cavalry.
Our artillery was brought to bear on
them, throwing some shells, which made
them skedaddle, and We turned our
faces towards this place aud marched
back about six miles, where we biyouaced
for she night, and next day returned to
camp Our lorses were about three kill
ed and twelve wounded. The boys saw
four dead rebels and four prisoners, and
citizens who came in from the scene Of
action report that the rebels lost eleven
killed and thirteen wounded.
The forces engaged were the 18th and
24th Indiana, 7th Kentucky, S4th Ohio
infantry the 18th New York battery, 4ih
Wisconsin eavalry-altogether, about
1000 men.
The health Of the regiment is general
ly pretty good, although.our company has
lost two Of its best men. J. Van Snyder
was shot by guerrilla while coming
down the river, near the mouth Of White
River. The ball entered the groin,
whick caused his death in about 24 hours
lie was buried at Natehez. The other
was our First Sergeant, J. II. Holmes,
who, soon after arriving at this place was
taken sick with the pneumonia and fever
and died on the 22d Of April, and was
buried in the soldiers graveyard at this
place, with the honors Of war.
