The twenty-seventh Virginia Regiment.
This regiment was commanded by Lieut. Col. Echols in the battle of Manassas, Col. Gordon being detained by illness.
It was one of the regiments which made the forced march from Winchester, and there were only about three hundred of the whole number engaged in the fight; and out of these gallant three hundred, over one hundred were killed and wounded — a mortality scarcely known in the history of war. The following is the list:
Of the "Greenbrier Rifles," W. H. Callison. R. Scott, C. McShehon, and Michael Bowen, were killed.
J. W. Gilkeson, W. H. Bouner, D. H. Bell, J. Callicon, J. W. A. Ford, G. W. Harper, Thomas Henry, L. H. Johnson, M. McMahon, Thos. Peyton and Wm. Sergeant, were wounded.
Joseph W Gilkeson died from his wounds on the 25th ult.
Of the "Monroe Guards," Capt. Hugh S Tiffany, Robert Hamilton, Arch Campbell, RoCamp, Wiley Wisfield and John Conner were killed.
