Civil War-U.S.
Twenty-First Regiment Infantry
This I did at a double-quick, forming the brigade of General Lytle composed of the 36th and 88th Illinois, 24th Wis-cousin, and 21st Michigan and Colonel Bradley's brigade, now commanded by Colonel W. H. Walworth, to the front, under a terrible fire of musketry from the enemy. Many of the men were shot down before facing to the front. After a stubborn resistance the enemy drove me back nearly to the Lafayette road, a distance of about 300 yards.
