"The Confederates were successful in forcing theintrench- ments when the prompt arrival of a brigade commanded by General Carroll repulsed them w^ith so much vigor that the attack was abandoned, after having cost the assailants heavy losses, as evidenced by the number of dead and wounded left on the ground. " The battle ended as it had begun on the right. General Humphreys in his Virginia campaign says, "Gordon's brigade was formed in some open ground near the edge of the woods, and Johnson's i...n rear of it. The advance was then made a short time before sunset. Shaler's brigade was partly engaged building breastworks when the attack came, and was struck in flank, - and rolled up and thrown into confusion and several hundred prisoners captured from it, including General Shaler. Seymour's brigade was also disordered, and toward the end of the attack he was captured, though not many prisoners were from his brigade. " Gordon's troops soon became disordered, and, darkness coming on, he made no further attempt to advance.
