About three o'clock in the afternoon the enemy disappeared in our front and the firing ceased. We considered that a victory had been won. The wounded Avere cared for and then orders came for us 22 TIIK FIKST CAMPAIGN OF THE to retire to a piece of woods in our rear and till our boxes with ammunition. We found the First Rhode Island in the woods with arms stacked and some of the men cooking. I remember of meeting friends in the First Regiment and congratuhiting them on our victory, little expect...ing the tinale of our day's fiilhtino-. The firing, which had gradually receded, now seemed to be nearer, and soon a shell fired into the woods told us that the enemy had returned to renew the combat. I cannot explain the causes for w^hat fol- lowed. The woods and roads were soon filled with fleeino: men and our brio;ade was ordered to the front ♦o cover the retreat, which it was now evident could not be stopped. Lieutenant-Colonel Frank Whea- ton who, on the fall of Colonel Slocum, had assumed command, posted the regiment to the left of our first position and behind a fence.
