e Fifteenth Missouri, two pieces of the flying artillery, under Captain Elbert, and two companies of the Benton hussars, under Major Heinricks, I ordered to advance on the Sugar Creek road toward Bentonville, to demonstrate against the rear of the enemy. Two pieces of the Second Ohio battery, with six companies of the Second Missouri, remained in their position to guard the camp, and two companies of the Forty-fourth Illinois, with twenty men of the Thirty-sixth Illinois cavalry, under Captain Russell, were sent forward in a north-western direction, to remain there as a picket between Leesville and the Sugar Creek road. With all other troops — the Fifteenth Missouri, the Twenty-fourth and Forty-fourth Illinois, and two pieces Captain Woelfley's battery — I marched to Leesville to reenforce Cols. Davis and Osterhaus.

they charged on us, Lieut. Williams, myself and two others, were in the lead. We came to an Indian lying down, as we supposed, wounded, but just as we were about to pass on, he raised up and fired at Lieut. Williams, the ball just grazing his head. He turned and shot the savage through the head. When they ran as we charged on them, about one hundred and fifty of them ran down into the town, thinking we would not fire into the town, but they were mistaken. The Major ordered the cannon to be loaded with round shot and shell and fired into them. The shot passed through the steeple of the church, and wounded some four or five of them. The shell passed through a smoke-house, cutting a side of bacon in two, and killing three and wounding ten or twelve of them. It came near killing a woman. I have some trophies which I took on the field, which I will send home by Lieut. Brach. The rebel force was headed by Cols. Stainwright and Coffey, and Major Russell. Yours, etc., W. R.

n had now reached Meeting and Queen streets. The terror of families, in many cases without their protectors, owing to the military exigencies of the times, was very great. Contiguous to the fire and even much further up into the city, the work of packing up valuables and getting ready to desert their homesteads became general, and it is impossible to give anything like a full account of the results of what will hereafter be known as "the great fire of 1861." The fire begun in Russell & Co.'s sash and blind factory at the foot of Hazel street, and there are reports that it occurred in three places at the same time. Crossing to the other side of Hazel street, it has burned Cameron & Co.'s immense machine shops, and under the impulse acquired at that point, and the stiff breeze from the northeast, without a sufficient supply of water, it has become totally unmanageable and rages without the hope of being able to arrest it, except at certain points.
