Doc. 141.-battle of village Creek, Ark. Colonel Brackett's report. headquarters Ninth regiment Illinois cavalry, camp on village Creek, Jackson County, Ark., June 28, 1862. Captain: Yesterday afternoon I received orders from General Steele to send a force down White River to reinforce the Third battalion of my regiment, which I had sent out under Major Wallis on a foraging expedition, the train of the Post Quartermaster having been attacked by the enemy. Accordingly I started with the Second battalion of my regiment, and shortly after overtook my train, which was returning without corn. I caused the train to go back, and joined both of my battalions together. At Stewart's plantation I learned that the enemy was near by, and I determined to attack him. When a mile beyond Stewart's plantation, which is about six miles from this place, my advance-guard, under Capt. Knight, came suddenly upon the enemy, and the fight commenced in earnest. I sent my companies forward,
en thousand men from Gen. Halleck's army. We will then attack them again, and with the aid of the army, take possession of the batteries at all hazards. The casualties in the fleet are few, and I escaped uninjured, and am well and ready and willing to try it again. Your affectionate son, Albert. P.
