Text Appearing Before Image:
such speed thatthe horses were over the breastworks before a man was hit. Criesof We surrender! were heard on every hand, aud the squadronpassed towards the river, leaving the prisoners to be cared for bythe expected reserve. No reserve came up, and seeing the small-ness of the Federal force, the Confederates rallied and nearly anni-hilated it, killing, wounding, and capturing seventy-four out of onehundred and two. A Federal captain, major and lieutenant wereamong the killed. A. P. Hill was here in person, and the charge was so sudden thathe could have been captured had he been known. While he wasmaking ready to mount his horse, a Federal cavalryman rode oneither side of him, and one looked back and ordered him to reportat the front with the other prisoners. The general reported on thebank of the Potomac instead, and as he crossed the river the ballssplashed him with water until he seemed to have had an accidentalbath. He afterwards referred to it as the closest call he had everhad.
