Our battery poured in deadly fire
upon the enemy's column advancing
up the road, while the musketry con-
centrated upon 1t, soon killing or
wounding most of the horses. When
within one hundred yards they re-
ceived volley from our entire line
and from that time the battle ragged
furiously. The enemy penetrated the
battery. were repulsed again returned.

down upon 1t with a column Of three
regiments doubtless the Colonel
Whitfield charge). and this time car

were, many of them. bayonetted at
their pieces. Three of the guns were
spiked. In this last charge tho bri-
gade of Texans. which had attempted
to turn our left. having been repulsed
by Purc4ell, turned upon the battery
and co-operated in the charge. The
Forty-eighth InGiana. which lay in its
track. was obliged to yield about one
hundred yards, where 1t was support
