with Fremont, moving on the opposite side of the river. The enemy pushed forward, driving in the Fifteenth Alabama, Colonel Canty, from their post on picket.

Colonel Canty, of the Fifteenth Alabama, by General Ewell's order, had been left on picket at Union Church, one mile in advance.

The conduct of the command, as a whole, was gallant and commendable. We had,
