MILITARY ANNALS OF TENNESSEE.


I ever saw. The word was passed along our lines often to shoot the tall off. er with the broad hat. I heard one of his men call him Harris or Harrison. and he was a very handsome man, perfectly straight, with brown beard, and he wore a very broad hat. I pray God he has survived, for he saved my life. If youd n't know him, please have this letter published in one of your weekly and daily pa- pers, so that it may reach him or some one who can give me information of him.


" Pardon the length of this letter. I have been thus explicit that I may recall to the mind the time of the occurrence mentioned. Hoping I am not asking too much of you, I am,


W. J. JONES.


Late Captain of Co. I Fightrenth Vermout Regiment. .


Lieut. F. S. Harris, of the Tennessee Brigade, who on that day comman led the division sharp-shooters, is yet living, surviving seven severe wounds retvivel in the late war. I hardly think history relates a more magnanimous act. Very noble, indeed, must have been the impulses of that heart whose sensibility and tenderness were not blunted by the brutal conflicts of war, and who in the heat of battle was not unmindful of the suffering of a fallen foe. To those of the Ten- nessee Brigade who knew the character of Lient. Harris this was no remarkable cecurrence, save that singular coincidence -- the wounding of Capt. Jones. From the above letter we see that in the estimation of Capt. Jones we had a . Biely Angle" on our right; and Col. Freemantle, of the British army, in giving an af- count of the battle of Spottsylvania in the Edinburgh Review, estimated this as a most desperate conflict.


After the second assault had been successfully met by the Tennessee Bricole in the angle, Gen. Lee rode down our line from the left amid heavy artillery firing and stopped within fifty yards of our works. We all shuddered for his safety, an ! as with one voice we cried, "General Lee to the rear!" Unmindful of our dhmi- ors and fears and his imminent danger, he held an animated consultation with Gens. Wilcox and McCombs, near where the Seventh Tennessee Regiment was stationed; and although I was within fifty yards of him, I could not understand what was said. Gen. Lee, with great animation, pointed in different directions. and then with his right hand and arm made a sweeping motion, as if io st. " Move your men to the right and rear, and attack the left flank of the enemy." Though his gesticulation was quick, it did not bespeak nervousness-it rather in- dicated the promptness and celerity with which he expected his commands to ie executed. At this time the entire force of sharp-shooters of Wilcox's division, under Lieut. Harris, together with a strong force of skirmishers commanddel by Lieut. Byrd Wilmouth, were advanced into the pine woods and gave at least the appearance of a tolerably strong force. This advance of the sharp-shooters and * skirmishers was but a cover for the real attack-the movement that had been or- dered by Gen. Lee.


As Gen. Lee returned toward our left, orders were immediately given and two brigades of Wilcox's division and one brigade of Heth's marched to the fear of our artillery, ont of sight of the enemy. The removal of the-e troops weakone ! our lines in front of the enemy, but those who were left filled the vacances as well as could be done. These three brigades moved considerably to the extren.e right of our artillery, as a large open field was in front of the artillery antes- tended for some distance to the right, to avoid being seen by the enemy an i also

to reach a road that led to the woods in front of our artillery. This road they took, and by a rapid march they soon fell on the left flank of the enemy. The attack was sudden and unexpected and accomplished the result of all successful flank movements, and more too. By this movement the enemy was surprised, and many prisoners were captured and sent to the rear; and notwithstanding these three brigades met with stubborn resistance and hard fighting, they pressed on un- til they threatened the Federal artillery, when the enemy, to save his artillery and to check this flank movement, withdrew troops from his center and was there- by compelled to desist from further attacks on our center or on. the Bloody Ingle. Though the Tennessee Brigade and the brigades from Wilcox's division did not - assault the enemy in front of the center angle, yet they accomplished the same result by forcing the Federals to draw the center-the very troops that were assail- ing the center or Bloody Angle; and hence we who were on the extreme right claim, after repelling the assaults made on our own part of the line, to have settled by our flank movement the doubtful issue of the repeated attacks on the center.


In conclusion, I desire to call the attention of those who participated in the battle of Spottsylvania to what appeared to me the most daring and desperate act of the war by any battery. On the morning of the 13th, while I was within our works, I saw to our right, distant about five hundred yards, and about the same distance immediately in front of our artillery, a Federal battery advance at full speed and there in an open field halt. The artillerymen at once took out their horses and sent them to the rear, as much as to say, "We have come to stay." This was within full view and within easy reach of our forty pieces. As quick as the horses were started back every man of that battery was seen digging, yet I could hardly think they were in earnest, for I was satisfied that if our artillery would but once open on them not a man could escape. Presently our artillery opened, and as soon as the smoke cleared off I could see that digging with des- perate energy was kept up by the survivors. Death and destruction, I thought, would be the portion of the battery and its brave defenders, for it appeared at times as if their very caissons were literally covered with bursting shells; yet strange to say a few gallant fellows survived the attack of the forty field pieces, and amid showers of shot and shell succeeded in throwing up tolerably secure works. They came to stay, and they did remain. This was one of the bravest acts of the war, and in the hope that I may yet learn who those gallant fellows were I mention the incident. J. H. M.
