Cadmu~ M. Wilcox, C. S. Army, commanding un gade. HEADQUARTERS WILCOXS BRIGADE, Near Richmond, Va., June 12, 1862. SIR: I have the honor to submit the following report of the opera- tions of my brigade in the battle of the 31st ultimo (Saturday) and 1st instant, known as Seven Pines: On the 30th ultimo orders were received to be prepared with ammu- nition and cooked rations for an early march the following morning. At 6.30 a. m. the brigade moved from its camp near Mechanicsville turnpike by by-paths across to the junction of the Charles City and Williamsburg roads, and remained at this point till 3.30 p. m. I was then ordered to move with three brigades, my own Colstons, and Pryors, on the Charles City road in rear of a part of Liugers division (Blanchards and Armisteads brigades) as a support to these troops; this order was soon modified and my three brigades ordered to precede Hugers two.

It was about 5 p. m. when the head of the column reached the WIll- iamsburg road. The leading regiment (the Eleventh Alabama~ Col. Sy- denham Moore of my brigade) was ordered immediately to the fi~ont by the division commander to report to Maj. Gen. D - H. Hill, who was in command of the troops then engaged on this road. Soon after the Nineteenth Mississippi (Maj. John Mullins) received similar orders. I was directed to place Colstons brigade in rear of the right flank of The troops then engaged; this being accomplished, I moved forward in command of the two remaining regiments of my own brigade (Ninth and Tenth Alabama, Lieut. Col. Stephen F. Hale and Maj. J. J. Woodw~rd) and rel)orted to General ID. H. Hill. The Eleventh Alabama had been ordered by General Hill to report to General Kemper; the latter ordered three companies of this regi- mentto dislodge the enemy holding a certain point that proved to be ~ry
