CHEERS THEN DEFEAT

McClellan's Pen1nsular cam
raign continued unabated. On
June 26, 1862, following heavy
fighting at nearby Mechanics
vile, Virginia, General George
B. Mcclellan sent General Fitz-
John Porter orders to Fall
back! Fall back; to Gains Mill"
Retreating orders also called for
strengthening the supply line,
and moving into a position to
place swampy grounds between
Porter and the opposing forces.
At noon the following day,
four Confederate divisions open
ed the Battle of Gains Mill. Be-
cause of indefinite orders, divi-
sions lacked cooperation and
suffered heavy losses in the en-
counter. Exhausted at the end
cf the day, Confederate troops
took cover for needed rest in
nearby woods.
Noting the retreat and the
silence, Mcclellan moved his
fine army in for the final VIC
tory; his men were cheering
and shouting. Rather than the
supposed victory, however, the
cheering soldiers were met with
deadly shots from crouching
Rebels.
The Battle of Gains mill end
ed in favor of the South. When
three-mile-wide assault was
made by the Confederates, u.s.
ing bayonets and bowie knives,
federal troops fled in confusion.
Among the many casualties
vas Major Robert Wheat of the
Louisiana Battalion who spoke
the mind of many dying Con-
federates. He said, "The field
is ours, as usual, boys-Bury
me on the battlefield"
Knowing that McClellan's sup
Fly line was broken by the bat
tie, General Robert E. Lee
wrote President Jefferson Da-
Wis from the site, saying, "We
shall sleep on the field, and
shall renew the contest in the
morning"

Acting Secretary-General U

He has done so in the context
of a gathering storm over Ka-

. Plans by Katanga to stage

of the central government. The
Congo as a whole. except for
Katanga, celebrates June 80.
