The 1st Minnesota was thrown out as skirmishers, and the rattle of musketry soon mingled with the booming of artillery. On our side, Kirby's battery had obtained a good range, and played away, with a certainty of aim and constancy that tore the ranks of the rebels asunder ; but their force was so large that the IVIinnesota boys were soon obliged to fall back, which they did in good order, under Colonel Sully, their commander. The 7 1st Pennsylvania, 2d New York, and other regiments now rushed t...o their assistance, which checked the advance of the enemy, and obliged him to fall back to the cover of the woods. This occurred between nine and ten o'clock, and cost us over one hundred and fifty, killed and wounded. Thus ended the first of a series of encounters, which, with the several battles described, might be said to have commenced at Orchard station, and continued, without intermission, until our arrival at Turkey Grove, on the James river. The time spent in destroying the stores which we were unable to carry with us, gave the enemy time to rest, and at about five o'clock in the afternoon he came in sight, near Savage's station, about three miles from Orchard station.
