The bugler beside Major Foreman sounded forward, and in a moment more the head of the column entered the base of the inverted ^ and the storm burst forth furiously. The artillery opened with shell and shrapnel, and swept the woods on each side of the apex of the inverted ^, but did not entirely suc ceed in driving the enemy from their positions behind logs and felled trees. Our cavalary, under Major Fore man, continued to move forward, and just as they were about to enter the ford, a large forc...e of the enemy ad vanced from under cover of the thick woods to within a few yards of the opposite bank, and delivered a vol ley into the ranks of our advancing column, wounding several men. The field pieces and howitzers immedi ately after this poured a stream of grape and canister into the ranks of the enemy, and they quickly disap peared behind their temporary defences. Major Fore man continued to move steadily forward until he reached about the middle of the stream, which was well up the flanks of the horses, when the enemy dis charged another volley of musketry into the ranks of our advancing troops, wounding Major Foreman and several men seriously, so seriously that they were ob liged to be taken to the rear.
