I have to mention with regret the loss in the last charge of Sergt. William Mahoney, color bearer of the regiment, who has borne the colors through every action the regiment has been engaged in with remarkable gallantry.

It is impossible to particularize officers or men where all behaved so gallantly. Captain H. H. Dewey, Company A, commanded the regiment in the latter part of the day, leading it in the last gallant charge and the severe combat preceding.

The loss was very heavy, being equal to one-half of all the officers present and one-third of the whole number present in the regiment. The numbers are as follows: Killed-commissioned officers, 1; enlisted men, 15. Wounded-commissioned officers, 7; enlisted men,58. Missing-enlisted men, 4. Total, 85.

A nominal list of casualties has been already forwarded.

I remain, very respectfully, your obedient servant,

CHARLES G. CHANDLER,

Lieutenant-Colonel, Commanding Tenth Vermont Volunteers.

Captain CHARLES H. LEONARD,

Asst. Adjt. General, First Brigadier, Third Div., Sixth Army Corps.

Skirmishers were thrown forward from the front line, under command of Major Charles M. Cornyn, One hundred and twenty-second Ohio, who immediately became engaged with the enemy's skirmishers. This position was attained about 9 a.m. The Nineteenth Army Corps was formed about 11 a.m. upon the right of my brigade. Heavy skirmishing continued until about 12 m., when the whole line advanced.
