Civil War
TENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
I was expecting our main line to advance to our support, receiving no orders, and seeing no troops advancing, I deemed it absolutely necessary to give the order to retreat. After falling back a short distance we came to a deep gully which had been formed by the action of the water. I gave the order to halt and dress on the center. The 60th Illinois had already fallen back and now lay in the gully upon our right. I heard Colonel Anderson, commanding that regiment, calling for me.
