Michigan Civil War
Eleventh Regiment Infantry
Still they came on like famished wolves in columns of divisions, sweeping over skirmishers, disregarding them uttterly. The 19th Illinois, under the gallant Young Scott, and the 11th Michigan, led by the brave Stoughton, charged in advance and drove back a division. * * * Negley formed his brigades in echelon, and seeing the critical nature of his position he was obliged to order a retrogade movement. But even after that the 19th Illinois and 11th Michigan made another dash to the front, driving the enemy again, then wheeling abruptly pushed steadily out of the cedars.
