BERLIN HEIGHTS, MD.,

July 17, 1863.

SIR: In compliance with your order of the present date, requiring a detailed report of the action my battery took in the late battle of Gettysburg, I have the honor to tender the following: On Thursday, July 2, about 4. 30 p. m., the Third Brigade was ordered to the front. Arrived there, my battery was immediately ordered into position on Cemetery Hill, where it remained until the afternoon of the 5th instant. Shortly after engaging the enemy, I had the misfortune to lose Stephen J. Braddock, one of my cannoneers, and on Friday afternoon Charles Lacey, a driver, fell, mortally wounded. Both were excellent soldiers, and fell at their posts. James Loufman and John Hill were slightly wounded, but have fully recovered. My loss in horses was 5. I expended 1, 120 rounds of ammunition. Finally, I think I have just cause to feel proud of the part my men sustained during the entire terrible engagement. All of which is most respectfully submitted.

Your obedient servant,

WALLACE HILL,

Captain, Comdg. Battery C, First W. Va. Vol. Arty.
