withstand that vast horde. Strangely
enough, the disaster which ultimately
fell upon the Eleventh corps was
brought about by the resistance offered
to the asSailants in the very beginning
of the attack by DevenS' men.
Gen. DevenS made q brief and plucky
but useless fight. The towards, Of
which there are always some, the non
combatants and wounded men rushed
back along the line, creating scare,
and the confederateS on either side,
north and south of the brigade (Doleso
that was brought to halt by Won elisa,
fell with suddenness upon the Third d.
vision, aSSa:ing it in the rear as well as
In front, disrnpting IL and forcing 1t
back upon the next division, which had
TO give way under the double pressure
OF retreating friends and the pursuing
foes. When at length Devens did re-
treat, with the intention Of rallytng on
the Third division, that body was In
volved in the retrograde, and there was
no soundneSs anywhere save in the dis
tant rear, where warning had been Suf-
fcient 70 enable the troops TO change
their facing and prepare for what was
coming. This sound part was Williams
division of the Twelfth corps lying next
10 the last division, counting from the
new front, of the Eleventh.
Meanwhile, many of the Eleventh
corps regiments had made gallant in
dividual fights, losing from one-third TO
one-half Of their numbers killed and
wounded. To some cases Devens' men
fought their wsy back to the rear
through ranks OF ConfederateS that had
swung around to intercept them. So
desperate In fact was the resistance OF
the Eleventh corps that the whole even
ing was consumed by Jackson's battle
march Of about two miles,
At last hts progress was held up by
Williams division OF the Twelfth corps.
Here was HOoker's real stronghold.
The Third, Twelfth, Fifth and First
CORPS, numbering $4,000 men, lay with
in supporting distance OF one another in
4 general direction north and south.
Into the very midst Of this body Jack
son was plunging at full speed, when
darkness and the return blows OF
Williams division and other Union
troops compelled him to pause and re-
arrange his columns. He had already
driven ahead 50 far that the morrow
would find him between two fires again,
In the midst OF Hoeker's main line OF
battle and his reserves.
Stonewall was doubtless apprenticeship
of this. The surprise hadn't carried all
that he had hoped. He went to the ex-
treme front beyond his pickets to study
the situation and place his men for a re-
pewal OF the fighting, when he was
wounded, probably BY bis enemies. al

so. and it was good to give the men
breathing spell. SO far well done.
Jackson was ready.
But there is nothing, sure Ia war.
The right of Hooker's army was held
by the Eleventh corps, Gen. o. 0.
Howard, and the right Of the Eleventh
corps line by the division OF Gen.
Charles Devens. Jackson struck
Deyens' men first. Deyens' pIckets
lay half a mile In front Of his main
line.
During the day, frequently from II
o'clock until 8, the hour of Jackson's
attack, these pIckets reported the
enemy on their front. In the earlier
portion OF the day this enemy was
Stuarts cavalry, masking the real
movement--that is, making false mo-
lions to throw the union piekets of
their guard. Very early in the morn
ing Gen. Hooker rode along the Eleventh
corps line, and returning to his tent
sent word to Howard at $3.50 a. m. to
make some changes in the ar
rangement of his troops and
strengthen his works In anticipation OF
attack from the west. Gen. Howard
sent word to HIS chief at IL o'clock
that he knew that the Coniederates
were moving toward his right and that
he was preparing for an attack from the
west. There was in truth no end OF
warning on Gen. Towards line that
something unusual was afoot, and De-
vens' pickets and trench guards were at
their posts, ready, though possibly over
confident, on account OF the Indifference
displayed by their superiors. Devens
asked for re-enforcements, but none
were sent him.
Between 3 and o'clock, or about the
hour when StOnewall's leading regi-
ments reached the place where the at
tax was to begin, Devens' pickets on
mat very spot, the west end OF the I'm
10 line, were assailed with vigOr. I'm
ION scouts Immediately passed out be-
md the limits of the pickit line and
I lere came upon a strong force of Con-
f,derate cavalry with their horse bat
tories drawn up for battle. All OF this
was reported 10 Gen. Howard.
The COnfederates, when ready to
strike, stood in three long lines Of bat
tie, about 10000 men in each line.
Their lines extended north and south,
nearly, and overlapped at each end the
short Union breaswork that confronted
them on the west end Of Gen. Devens'
short line. Stonewall sat upon his
horse at the head of the first line,
watchin hand and gave the signal to
the leader to sound the charge. A
bugle rang out, the Confederate Skin
mishers started through the dense UNI
dergrowth, and for three hours or more
thereafter confusion reigned all along
the plank road from Wilderness Church
half way TO HOoker's eastern front at
Tabernacle Church.
The little north and south section OF
Devens' breastwork was occupied by
Gen. Won Gilsa's brigade. Gen. DOles'
Confederate brigade, leading the as
sault, was opposite Won Guilsa, and as
soon as it got to work it fovnd that the
surprise was by no means complete. 1t
was received with heavy muSketry
fire, besides canister and shell. Even
Won CilSa's skirmishers attempted TO

1t was o'clock in the afternoon, May
-. Twenty-fOur hours had changed the
face of things. Hooker and his 10000
were now beset by enemies on the east
and on the west, and in spite Of all were
unwarned Of the blow about TO fall.
The march Of Confederates westward as
reported from the scene of the little
fight on the Union outpOStS was believed
by the Union general 70 be retreat
from fredericksburg toward Richmond.
Hooker had sent his cavalry corps
away on a wild ride along the railroads
between those two cities, and hence the
eyes OF the army were absent. There
was no scouting, no accommodating, no
alert Up-and-a-dOing spirit at Union
headquarters. In this lay Jackson's
opportunity, for had Hooker inter-
preted the Confederate movement right
ly and pushed out a force south or east,
he would have crushed whatever at
tempted 70 stay him, separated Lees
stationary columns az Tabernacle
Church from Jackson's moving body
and won his point.
But fortune favors the bold, and
StOnewall was currying favor with the
fckle goddess that day. A dense thick
ct concealed his troops from the enemy
while he formed them for the grand f.
male, the finishing stroke. Impatient
to begin yet he held back the signal two
hours to allow the brigades and battal-
ions TO get ready. The devious march
70 the field had been a trying one, the
bloody one to come would be stiil more
