or three of the Federals were lost in these irregular skirmishes. The
night was spent in active labors and in jealously watching the
movements of the foe.
At half-past three o’clock the next morning, the whole division was
under arms. At six o’clock information that the enemy was
approaching was received, and the troops prepared at once to meet
him. The Gosline Zouaves, (Pennsylvania,) New York Sixteenth,
Eighteenth, Thirty-first and Thirty-second, and Maine Fifth were
ordered to take the advance; the New Jersey brigade following them
up as a reserve. The Fourth New Jersey having in its front a marsh,
and immediately on its far side a piece of woods, from which the
enemy could fire upon it with advantage, Colonel Simpson ordered
his fine body of pioneers to throw a bridge over the creek. This was
the work of a few moments, and his regiment, by direction of Colonel
Taylor, took possession of the woods, and were strongly posted
behind a ravine, ready to deliver a telling fire upon the rebels, in the
contingency of the Fifth Maine, immediately in front, being driven
back. This contingency, however, did not occur.
The Thirty-second New York, Colonel Matteson, of Newton’s
brigade, was directed to clear the wood of rebels, who had made their
presence known to the pickets. The Sixteenth New York was ordered
to the same work in other portions of the wood. The Thirty-second
proceeded to execute their duty. Entering the wood they came upon a
ravine, at the bottom of which they were fired upon by the rebel
skirmishers. They charged at once, delivering a galling fire upon the
enemy’s position. The enemy retired, the troops following until a
second ravine appeared in view. In attempting to cross this the rebels
from the other side again poured a volley into them with
considerable effect. They had not, however, the power to drive back
the Federal troops, who gallantly pursued the rebels, delivering their
fire upon them, or rather upon their position, for they kept
themselves adroitly concealed by the woods. At a third and last
ravine, the rebels had erected a breastwork on the opposite side,
from which they opened on the Federals with small arms, and grape
and canister from mountain howitzers. The Thirty-second charged
gallantly up to within a few feet of the work, but were forced to fall
back from the superior force of the enemy. They retired in admirable
order. There were only seven companies of the Thirty-second
regiment engaged against Alabama, Texas, South Carolina and
Tennessee troops.
At two o’clock, P. M., the gunboats, three in number, opened fire
upon the enemy from their large guns, the shells apparently taking
effect in the right quarter, for the enemy soon afterwards retired,
their battery being silenced on the first shot from the boats. The
enemy’s retreat could be traced by the line of smoke in his rear. The
retreating rebels were evidently attempting to destroy every thing on
their route. The Sixteenth and Thirty-first regiments, New York
Volunteers, were also engaged with the enemy in the woods. The loss
of the Thirty-second regiment New York Volunteers was nearly one
hundred in killed and wounded. Three officers,—Captain Young, of
company D; Captain Brown, of company C, and Lieutenant Wallace,
of company G—were killed, and Lieutenant Stone, of company B, and
Lieutenant Twaddle, of company F, wounded severely, and thirteen
privates were killed. The total loss in the different regiments of
Newton’s brigade was about two hundred in killed, wounded and
missing. The loss of the rebels was heavy, as was presumed from the
fact that they were seen from the transports carrying off their dead
and wounded in great numbers.
Most of the Federal regiments that took part in this engagement
suffered severely, and many prisoners were taken by the rebels. The
timely service rendered by the gunboats was mainly instrumental in
defeating the enemy.
Captain Montgomery, of General Newton’s staff, had a most
extraordinary escape from the Hampton Legion, into whose picket
lines he became entrapped. Captain Montgomery knew that only the
utmost self-possession could extricate him from his difficulty, and he
coolly saluted them. They supposed he was a rebel officer, and asked
him how far General Hampton was from them. Montgomery told
them he had left him about ten rods distant, and said, “Now, boys,
the General expects you to do your duty to-day!” and turned his
horse slowly around to retire. But the rebels saw the “U. S.” on his
cap, and immediately sprang to their feet, while the Captain was
dashing with all the speed of his horse down the road. But too late. A
volley of minie rifle balls whistled round him, and his horse fell dead,
pierced by seven balls. He fell upon Captain Montgomery’s leg,
giving him several severe bruises. The Captain fell back, with his
head in a ditch, where he lay some ten minutes, pretending to be
dead. The rebels came up to him, talking, swearing, and making their
comments on the Yankee, while they rifled his pockets.
The brave fellow lay perfectly still, holding his breath, while these
rude men were searching his person; but a sense of his ludicrous
position came upon him too strongly, and he burst into a hearty fit of
laughter, much to the astonishment of those who believed
themselves to be pillaging a dead body.
Of course, there was no avoiding his fate now, and he surrendered
himself a prisoner of war, with the merry laughter still bright upon
his face. His captors were greatly annoyed by his coolness and his
“shamming,” and were leading him off to headquarters, when a
couple of shells came whizzing through the air and exploding in their
midst, dispersed them. Captain Montgomery seized the opportunity,
and plunging into the woods found his way to the Federal lines,
where, after a little rest, he mounted another horse and joined the
fight again.
