This startling command was uttered
in moment when the brayest hearts
qnailed, and. more over, IL was the com
mand OF Capt. Jack Mullen, OF the
Twelfth Regiment, Connecticut Infan-
try Volunteers IL WAS uttered when
bullets rained upon the Captains little
brigade aud his men fell like blades of
grass before the scythe. There was no
time for eloquent paraphrasing or for
rhetoric or delicate dictlon. Forcible
language, no matter il a little profane,
was what the emergency demanded.
The Federal forces at Cedar Creek had
faltered and then began to retreat in
dismay under the murderous fire OF the
opposing forces.
Capt. Mullen, n staff officer and mere
boy scarcely twenty years OF age, was
placed in charge Of the only brigade
available. He was ordered TO the front
TO stem the tide. lie gave the command
10 charge, and when older men saw him,
"a mere youth, riding to the front they
gave cheer and dashed down upon the
lmpenetrable phalanx that confronted
them. II was terrible carnage. The
little brigade obeyed the command with
indomitable courage, but the odds were
too much, and the Captain saw his men
waveriug. They seemed inclined 20
join other brigades and 90 desert their
colors. II was then that he yelled this
command which emphasizes the badge
presented TO him by the few who sur
vived that awful struggle. IN IL the
brigade was completely surrounded, but
Capt. Mullen would not capitulate nor
would he forsake the stars and stripes,
and by desperate fighting the colors
were returned 10 place OF safety in the
Union camp. But the boys in blue had
10 fight their way out, and Of that bril-
gade there was only meager battalion
left to tell the tale OF the horrible
slaughter.
