"July 8th. About 10 o'clock A. M. we met the enemy in large force between Boons-borough and Hagerstown, about three miles from Boonsborough. Here, again, on accounts of some stone walls, I was ordered to dismount my command and charge the enemy who was strongly posted in a piece of wood. We attacked him vigorously, driving him out of his lines and far beyond. In this last charge I was seriously wounded and carried from the field and did not join my command again until September, on the day our cavalry drove Stuart's command out of Culpepper Court House.
