American Civil War
SIXTEENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
The loss of the 16th in this affair was 10 killed and 42 wounded. Following the death of Colonel Welch Major Partridge assumed command of the regiment, retaining it until the muster out of service. A correspondent writes as follows:
"' A more magnificent charge was never made by any corps in any war, ' said General Warren-, speaking of the charge made to-day by General Griffin's division upon a redoubt and line of formidable breastworks fronting upon our headquarters.
