clear the road up to Mechanics vUle, nx
crossed the bridge a little in advance of !be
rest of the seventh. Shortly after crossing
this detachment encountered a sqiiidron of
yarikee cavalry, and put them to fiizht, cap
turing their guidon. The most active part of
the skirmishing was done b.y Captain Turner,

although not" actively engaged on the 27dj,
the enemy Jgave way and teil back.-
In the afcernoin of the 27th, we encounter

three miles of Richmond, wh ir1 we rem lined
until the. 28th of the sun month. For a
more particular and reliable account of the
part taken hy the seventh regiment in the
seven days around KichmeiJ, reference is
made to the ofiioial report of Lieut. Cd.
H?iy wood to Brigadier GtmeraT Bianeh, made
s .on after, a copy of which was lurnished to

we marched to Cedar Run, where we ene. win

at this fight an incident occurred .which de
serves a place on the roll of , honor. It was
necessary to detai 1 a color guard to re-plae"

by others, fill a sufiioieut number was rais-d.
The unwilling men were returuvd to th.ir
places, and the colors (htrns'ed t( the vobm

service, well performed at Harper's
Ferry. Serg't Vick was mada 2d Lieut, of Co.
F ; and he now commands as Cataiu that
Company in this regiment no reference is
made to the so-called official report of ifiis
action since it was based upon one not drawn
up either by the 1st, 21 ,or 3d in command
at the time, and seems .intended to reflect upon
the commanding ofiieer of thi regiment, ' and
cannot properly be called offi-ial. But a re
port of " said figjit drawn up at Col. H ty
woyd's request, by the 2d Lieu'euant in com

The seventh regiment, after this, was or
dered b;fek with the brig-ida to Orange Court
House, Va , where we arrived on the I2:h of
August, and remained till the 18th, when -we
marched to Clarks Mountain, and from thence
to' a point near Jefferson, where we arrived
on the 23 J, -and on the 24th we;o' subjected
to' a very heavy she-ding, which lasted ail
day. - in the evening wc moved to Jeffer
son, Va.", and on the 25th we marched to
wards Manassas Junction, and encountered
a portion of tho enemy there on. the 27th, and
defeated them. On the 23 oh, 20 h and 30'h,
the second battle oi Manassas w u fought, and
after mid day of the 29th, Captain -Mae Rue
commanded, the regiment die commanding
