U. S. Civil War
Fifteenth Regiment Infantry
On Wednesday morning, 2d instant, our scouts were driven in, wounding one man and two horses. I then reported the facts to headquarters and asked for reinforcements, which were promptly furnished, consisting of two regiments and two pieces of artillery under command of Colonel J. M. Oliver, commanding 2d brigade. He arrived about sundown and assumed command. During the whole afternoon our scouts and pickets were engaged in skirmishing, falling back slowly and contesting every foot of the way.
