Michigan Civil War
TWELFTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
Several came in and surrendered themselves as prisoners, and we used up in killed and wounded, according to the best reports we could get from the enemy and their friends, nearly three times our own number.
" Our losses were slight, a few wounded, none severely, and a few men on out-post duty were captured.
"During the fight the enemy tried several times to draw us out of our fortifications, which consisted of a small log house formerly used for a grocery, a cotton platform, the plank taken from the top and put around the sides, and the loft of a brick store.
