Civil War-U.S.
Twenty-First Regiment Infantry
The front attack he received with such an artillery and musketry fire that the Confederates were not only checked and broken, but were pursued across the field to their entrenchments. Then by retiring his right and reserves, he swung his line around so as to come perpendicularly to its former direction. He faced now south instead of east and stood parallel to the Wilkinson turnpike. The Confederate division in front of him and greatly overlapping him in this, his new position, were at once held in check.
