CHAPTER LII
10/16

Meade and I occupied the best position we could get, in rear of Warren.
Warren was repulsed with heavy loss, General J.C.Rice being among the killed.

He was not followed, however, by the enemy, and was thereby enabled to reorganize his command as soon as covered from the guns of the enemy.

To the left our success was decided, but the advantage was lost by the feeble action of Mott.

Upton with his assaulting party pushed forward and crossed the enemy's intrenchments.

Turning to the right and left he captured several guns and some hundreds of prisoners.
Mott was ordered to his assistance but failed utterly.
