started, without permission, to join his regiment, and being somewhat intoxicated, passed through our advance lines and has not been heard from since.

I take this opportunity of calling the attention of the general commanding division to the energetic and efficient manner in which the brigade staff performed their duties during the operations of the day.

Respectfully,

A. FUNK,

Colonel Thirty-ninth New York Volunteers.

March 26, 1865

SIR: In obedience to orders from brigade headquarters of this date, I have the honor to submit the following report:

At 11.30 a.m. yesterday we were ordered to the front to support the attacking party. We remained in reserve all day. During the afternoon we supported a battery while it dislodged a force of the enemy from a large house, which was done effectually. Although we were not actually engaged with the enemy, yet the men acted brave and cool; and had our assistance been required, I am confident the men would have conducted themselves with credit.
