20(5 SHARI'SHOOTING AND SKIRMISHING Gen. Gorman, speaking of their service, said : "Captain Sannder's company of Sharpshooters, attached to the 15th Massachusetts volunteers, together with the left wing of that regiment, silenced one of the enemy's batteries and kept it so, driving the cannoneers from it every time they attempted to load, and for ten minutes fought the enemy in large numbers at a range of 15 to 20 yards, each party shel- tering themselves behind fences, large rocks, and straw-
...stacks." The Second Minnesota Sharpshooters (Company L) were also engaged here in the same brigade, going into action with 42 men and losing 24, as I am informed, "within a space of time not exceeding 10 minutes." Gen. McClellan reports: "2,700 of the enemy's dead were counted and buried on the field, while a portion had been previously buried by the enemy, which was conclusive evidence that the enemy sustained much greater loss than we. Thirteen guns, 39 colors, upwards of 15,000 stand of small arms, and more than 6,000 prisoners were the trophies which attest the success of our arms in the battles of South Mountain, Crampton's Gap, and Antietam.
