OFFICIAL REPORT OF LIEUTENANT-COLONEL McGOVERN.
HEAD QUARTERS, 122d REGIMENT, P. V., ) May 8th, 1863. A
CAPTAIN PIATT, Assistant Adjutant-General :
In obedience to circular form from Brigade Headquarters, dated May 7th, 1863, calling for a report from Commanding Officers of Regiments, of the part their commands took in the late engagements on the Rappahannock, and in the vicinity of Chancellorsville, Va., I have the honor to report, that, on the 2d of May, the 122d Regiment, P. V., marched in its proper place, in the First Brigade, on the " Plank Road," about one mile west of Chancellorsville, and filed to the left, going in the direction of a battery, which I understood to be firing upon a marching column of the enemy. I was ordered "to form line of battle, in ad- vance of the battery ;" and forwarded obliquely to the right, passing a dense woods on my right, " in close column by Company," where I deployed column upon emerging from the woods, and again advanced in line of battle across a swamp, within 250 yards of the lines of the enemy. At this point the fire of the enemy opened ; but, as I was preceded by a line of skirmishers, I was prevented from delivering an effective reply. Our lines halted at this point and I ordered my men to lie down, to .. void that part of the enemy's fire which was delivered at our skirmishers.
Our lines were not advanced from this point. I found it impossible to wholly, restrain the fire of my men, as the fire opened on our left and rear, though our skirmishers had not yet returned. In a few moments, I was ordered to " About Face !" to repel the enemy, who had suddenly appeared upon our rear ; and I hastened to bring my men to support the battery upon the hill. When I arrived at the hill, Major- General SICKLES rode up, and said, that he wished "the Reg-
343

iment in line in two minutes-everything depended upon it! In a moment, the Regiment was in line ready to meet the enemy !" We did not advance, however, and I was ordered to take position about 200 yards in advance of the battery, at the edge of the woods, and in no case to yield the place to the enemy. I advanced to the woods, and took position, throwing out skirmishers. About II o'clock, P. M., the enemy advanced and opened fire. My skirmishers fell back as directed, and immediately I opened fire, delivering a sweeping and most effective volley into the woods, repelling the enemy, and completely silencing his fire. Shortly after- wards I was relieved by the 124th Regiment, N. Y. V.
On Sunday morning, May 3d, at 4 o'clock, I was ordered to move my Regiment to the right, about one mile, across the " Plank Road," and was put in position to meet the ad- vancing column of the enemy, and immediately beca.ne en- gaged. Our advance was slow but steady, until II o'clock, when the left wing had reached and occupied the breast- works of the enemy. The right handsomely repulsed a line of the enemy, which threatened our flank ; and, following up its success, rejoined the left at the breast-works. During the progress of the morning's engagement, my men did not at any time falter or yield an inch of ground to the enemy?
I would state that, at the beginning of the engagement, I labored under the misapprehension of believing that my line wa preceded by other lines of our own troops. I was led to believe so by orders I had received. The density of the woods prevented me from examining the ground before me. While I was still under theat belief, the enemy appeared on my right overlapping my line, and making a change of front necessary As our lines were close together and the fire seyere, I deemed it prudent to " change front upon right centre, company," throwing back my right and advancing my left. The movement was only partially successful, owing to the difficulty of making orders heard. My left moved straight forward over the breast-works, while the right wing,

changing front, delivered a well-directed fire, which put the enemy to precipitate flight. In the temporary separation, the left wing was under command of Major STEVENS. When, orders to that effect were received, the Regiment retired in a body, in good order, having been actively engaged with the enemy for six hours .*
[The Regiment was not again actively engaged. ]
I find it difficult to return the exact number of prisoners taken, as they were rapidly sent to the rear during the en- gagement, as soon as taken. The whole number taken, during Saturday and Sunday, were not less than 150.
Our losses are, as follows :
Enlisted men, killed, . II
Officers, wounded, .
6
Enlisted men, wounded, 70
Enlisted men, missing, 16
103
I do but justice to both officers, and men, when I say, they behaved themselves with great gallantry.
Respectfully,
EDW. McGOVERN, Lieutenant-Colonel Commanding, 122d Regiment, P. V.
