American Civil War
TWENTIETH REGIMENT INFANTRY
This little force was distributed over a wide front to as good advantage as possible. Shortly after 8 o'clock A. M. the enemy attacked and drove in our outposts, and assaulted our main line. Our position was excellent. The enemy advanced with great confidence on front and flank, but was quickly and decisively repulsed with considerable slaughter. Then followed a sharp but desultory fight, continuing all day.
