Civil War-U.S.
Twenty-First Regiment Infantry
even covering the front of the position I had just abandoned, Davis was driven from his lines, and Laiboidt, whose brigade was in column of regiments, was ordered by Major General McCook to charge, deploying in front. The impetuosity of the enemy's charge, together with the inability of Laiboldt's command to fire in consequence of the ground in his front being covered with the men of Davis's division, who were rushing through his ranks, caused this brigade also to break and fall to the rear. In the meantime I had received
the most urgent orders to throw in my other two brigades.
