Lieutenant Colonel R. R. TOWNES,
Assistant Adjutant-General, Fifteenth Army Corps:
COLONEL: I have the honor to report that this forenoon a work for two pieces was built near center of my First Brigade, and occupied by two 12-pounder Napoleons. They commenced shelling the rebel rifle-pits at 3 p.m. with effect, driving the rebels temporarily from a portion of their pits. During the night I propose to construct another work in a more advanced position. Nothing further of interest to report.
I am, respectfully,
W. A. GORDON,
Assistant Adjutant-General.
