The Daily Dispatch: September 10, 1861., [Electronic resource], article 2 (search)
here can be told in a few words. --Early yesterday morning eight thousand of the Federals marched up to Munson's Hill, which our men were fortifying, and made an attempt to dislodge them.--Our advance consists of Longstreet's and Bonham's brigades, stationed near each other, and close by Munson's Hill. Long-street's force is composed of the First Virginia Regiment, commanded by Lieut. Col. Fry, in the absence of Col. Moore, who was wounded at the battle of the 18th; the Seventh Virginia, Col. Kemper, Lieut. Col. Williams, and Major Patton; the Eleventh Virginia, Col. Garland; the Seventeenth Virginia, Col. Corse; one Georgia Regiment attached at present, and several pieces of artillery.

Kemper, whose bravery and devotion to his men are almost unexampled, has determined to drive from his encampment every tradesman who for any article shall ask his men more than its value, and it is hoped a similar determination will be announced by all our officers, and the heartless vampires driven off. Ithuriel.
