Civil War American
THIRTEENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
but we were again compelled to retire, losing one-third of the the regiment dead or wounded, together with two guns from the battery. We re formed again about 150 yards to the rear of the second position, and being opportunely
supported by the gallant 51st Illinois Infantry we made a dashing charge with the bayonet, broke and routed the rebel line, recaptured the two guns, took 150 prisoners, and defeated the purposes of the enemy on this part of the field, namely, getting possession of the Murfreesboro pike. On this field the 13th lost Captain Clement C. Webb. "
