. . . The whole line deployed on the old turnpike, facing south, was rolled up and swept away in a moment. . . . The Twenty-sixth Wiscon- sin, flanked on both sides and exposed to a terrible fire in front, maintained the unequal contest for a considerable time, nor did it fall back until I ordered it to do so. . . . The enemy was now pouring in great force upon our right and left . . . and the position in and near the Church grove could no longer be held. . . . Behind the rifle-pit there was a ...confused mass of men belonging to all the divisions. . . . The enemy advancing on our right and left with rapidity the artil- lery ceased firing, and soon the rifle-pit was given up. . . . The retreat now became general, and the confusion increased as the troops marched through the woods. The losses suffered by my division in the action of May 2 were, in killed, wounded and missing, nine hundred and fifty-three. * McLean's and Von Gilsa's Brigades of First Division, t Howard's Eleventh Corps.
