Michigan in the Civil War
SEVENTEENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
Our loss in this affair was 27 killed and 114 wounded out of less than 500 men who were actually engaged.
" After driving the enemy down the slope of the mountain and capturing many prisoners (about 300), we formed in line of battle upon the crest, and slept during the night upon our arms, expecting to renew the battle in the morning, but the enemy quietly retired from our front during the night, abandoning their wounded, and leaving their dead in large numbers on the field.
