This was the fight at Garnett s farm. Captain James D. Campbell, of the Forty-ninth Pennsylvania, was the hero of that hot affair. The next day, Sunday the 29th, we fell back to Savage s Station, and there just at dark we participated in the battle fought at that point, where the enemy were repulsed with heavy losses. Our own losses were now telling upon us. Captain Gray of my company had been wounded by a shell at Golding s farm. At Savage s Station, Lieutenant Morrill suffered a severe sun st...roke, and I never expected to see him alive again. This left me in command of Company A. The night after the battle at 2 A Campaigning With the Sixth Maine. Savage s Station, we fell back until three o clock in the morning, when we crossed White Oak swamp and destroyed the bridges in our rear. Halting on the ascending ground beyond the swamp, we all fell where we stacked arms, and were asleep in an instant. The next morning, June 30th, the battle of White Oak swamp opened around us with a salute from forty pieces of Confederate artillery, which had been posted in a belt of tim ber across the swamp within easy range of us, and it is certain that the Sixth Maine never listened to such a reveille during its three years of service, as greeted our ears when these pieces opened with shell and shrapnel.
