4th Cavalry
"We succeeded in getting to the right place, where the enemy, Minty's brigade, was vigorously attacked by "William's and a portion of Anderson's brigade. After a sharp conflict the enemy was driven from the field, Hannon's brigade having come up and attacked them on the flank. The Yankees fought desperately and fell back slowly, with what loss we are unable to ascertain, as they carried off their wounded and most of their dead. To one who was an eye-witness but not an adept in the ' art of war,' it seems very- strange that the whole Yankee force was not surrounded and captured.
