Civil War American
THIRTEENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
The 51st Indiana advanced only to within three rods of our first line, and then threw forward skirmishers. My regiment charged past the first line and to the right, down to near the fence, and full thirty rods in advance of our first position, overtaking and driving the enemy from the place where the guns were recaptured, which was to the right and in front of our first line of battle, to the houses in our front, and into the cornfield on a line with the houses. The artillery ceased firing a short time before we opened upon the enemy, and fell back out of sight, with all but the guns captured.
