Some of the troops-the One hundred and tenth and One hundred and twenty - second Ohio -retreated to Harper's Ferry, and were followed by a fragment of the Eighty seventh Pennsylvania, some of the Eighteenth Connecticut, and stragglers from other regiments. The One hundred and sixteenth Ohio and Twelfth Virginia retreated trough Bath, in Morgan County. They were also followed by portions of the Eighty -seventh pennsylvania and by stragglers from other regiments. The Sixth Maryland must have retreaded to our right in a different direction. It belonged to the Third Brigade . The Sixty-seventh Pennsylvania, belonging to the Third Brigade, was generally captured, but under what circumstances I am unable to say. I do not think that the loss in the Third Brigade was larger than in others. I think that the loss in killed, wounded, and missing was about equal among the brigades.

Answer. No; I did not, for the same reason given in my last answer.

Question. Would or would not the presence of the brigade in the battle have contributed to the success of the retreat and the safety of the forces/

Answer. Judging from the effect of the attack of the One hundred and tenth and One hundred and twenty-second Ohio on the enemy's right, I am inclined to the opinion that had it been supported by the whole force at the proper time, the enemy would have been driven from his guns, and a retreat in better order secured, though I do not think we could have carried away any trophies of the victory, for the reason that the enemy was so heavy in our rear, and would have been upon us .
