Tho 2d Georgia Battalion on their Travels.
The following is part of a letter from Lieut.
Granniss to his father, dated
Camp Walker, 1
Drury’s Bluff, July 3d, 1862.)
Dear Father—You are aware that our bat
talion has been on the march ever since Friday
morning. I wrote you a short letter the day
before, and have not had a chance to write
since. Yours, of the 27th, was received at
Seven Pines. We were ordered out about 10
o’clock, Thursday night, and after forming, the
orders were countermanded. We went to bed,
and were again ordered up at 8 Friday morn
ing. We took up the line of march, with the
entire brigade, for the other side, over the pon
toon bridge, and arrived at the Seven Pines at
about 1 o'clock that day, and were put in Gen.
Huger’s division. Here we remained, within
hearing of the fight, until 4 o’clock next mcm-
ing, (Friday,) when - we left for th» other side
of the Chickahominy. The battalion passed
round the extreme right of the enemy’s line
and, crossing over a bridge they had built for
themselves, commenced passing through their
camps of the day before. It was a grand sight
to us, and something new also. On we march
ed until we came up to where Stonewall Jack
son had been, when we pushed on still farther
and at last arrived at the battle field of Wed
nesday and Thursday, were we halted and re
mained until 12 o’clock Saturday night The
sight here was awful I Dead bodies in every
and all directions—shot in every possible place
and wounded in every possible manner. Then
they were buried from five to twenty in a hole
while we were there. The boys walked around
and talked to the wounded Yankees who bad
been laying where they fell for twenty four
hours. Late papers from the North, letters,
tracts of tho most fanatical order, and every
kind of writing you could think of, were scat
tered about, as well as knapsacks, blankets,
new clothing, guns and every thing else—all
having been lelt by the scoundrels in their has-
ty departure. We amused ourselves reading
letters nearly all the time we were there—some
were very good, while others were miserable—
evidently written by very ignorant men and
men who had to fight for a support The most
of the letters we saw were from the folks at
home to those in the army; but we suw some
unfinished ones from those in the army, stating
that they would bo in Richmond by the 2d of
-July, and that shortly thereafter they would
return home, there to remain. They expected
that the Grand Army would have a great cele-
r. -A, on the 4th. I saw some
ladies to their friends, call-
fotindrels,”and wishing they

Wo nook up our lino of march,
.’they had not cut off Jackson, as was re-
\ so we went back and arrived on the
Williamsburg Road, about 10 o’clock that day.
Alter staying there two hours we started for
tho left wing of their army, (the right of ours)
and marched until night and then halted. We
were aroused early the next morning (Monday)
and started off; a .iout 10 o'clock it was report
ed that the enemy weie advancing up the road.
The brigade was accordingly stopped in an old
field and drawn up in line of battle, and wait
ed for some time, but in vain. We then march
ed up the road and went into the woods where
wc again formed in order of battle, expecting
that the enemy wsuld endeavor to retreat that
way, and we coul 1 cut him off Our artillery
went out and opened fire on some infantry that
were drawn up, but as soon as our guns appear
ed before them they retired, exposing a largo
row of light artil ery, which opened on our lit
tle artillery and compelled them to retire.—
The gunboats and the batteries then commenc
ed shelling us, and we bad three cross fires to
look out for—the balls and shells exploding
around us continually. I tell you I think it is
worse to be situated as we were than to be out
in an open field where we can return the fire of
the enemy. We could do nothing, however,
but lay Baton our backs and take if all with
out anjr etiauce oi retaliating, Tne Days at
first were a little excited, but after awhile took
it finely. I tell you the first two or three fires
makes one feel mighty ticklish. None of our
boys were hurt; but strange to say, while this
was tho case, every regiment in the brigade had
men killed and wounded, and we were in the
midst of it all It really does seem as if Pro
vidence protected us.
After laying there until 9 at night, (Monday)
we went up the road a short distance to sleep
t tbe remainder of the night Next morning
we were marched back to the field
ttle, but nary Yank came, and we

my, (who were now engaging our forces.) ever
and anon stoppiog and taking position by lay
ing on the ground. On we went, and were not
halted permanently until we reached a point
where we could hear them giving command —
There we lay for a long time, but they made no

night. It rained all tbe next day, and nothing

gether you must acknowledge that no troops
lave done more in the same length of time, nor
undergone more hardships—no blankets to cov
er with, and not a good night's sleep since we
left camp. But the boys stood it finely—some
of them were made sick, of course. The City
Light Guards returned without a single officer,
all having been left on some of the roads, sick.
In regard to myself I stood it admirably ; the
only thing that got me was the heat Mother
knows I cannot stand much of that. I am as
well as ever except a little sore in the feet, and
sleepy. I did not cave a single time, and can
stand as much as any one else. My fellow of
ficers, Copt. Jones, and Lieutenants Butts and
Campbell, all stood it well and are fine, with
the exception of Campbell, who had a chill this
afternoon. Mr. Saulsbury, Geo. Keith, and
several others were sick and did not go with us.
From the Bibb Greys, Company B, 37th
Georgia Itrgimrnt.
Richmond, 5th July, 1862.
Mr. £. C. Grannies—Dear Sir: As many
will be enquiring of you in reference to our
Company, I thought I would give you a minute
detail ot events. On Wednesday night at half
past one o’clock, we took up our inarch from
camp near Richmond, on the Williamsburg
road, across the oountry to Mechanicsvilleroad
and crossed the Chickahominy Swamp on a toll
bridge about dark, while there was a sharpe
skirmish going on between the Federate and
our forces who had crossed before us. After
passing tbe swamp about one mile, we was
halted and ordered to rest on our arms; when
at daylight (Friday,) our Division was ordered
out to engago a battery that we had failed to
take the evening before. Through some cause
or other, we was marched very near the enemy,
who occupied a very strong position with a
large battery and some small masked rifle bat
teries, which opened fire upon us, killing and
wounding several of our Brigade before wo
could fall back and get a position, but after a
few hours firing, the enemy left in full retreat
Wo loet nono in killed or woundod in our Com
pany. Capt Stubbs was commanding as Major,
and had a ball to pass through his pants.
We pressed the enemy on a force march for
7 miles in the heat of the day, to a place called
Cqal Harbor, where Stonewall, with his forces
was giving them jessy. Our men was pretty
near exhausted and overcome with heat; sev
eral had fallen by tho wayside from exhaustion,
but those of us that could walk, was pressed
into tho fight Just before netting into tbe
fight Lieut Col. Zichery, who commanded the
regiment was wounded slightly, which threw
tbe command of the regiment upon Captain
Stubbs, who led it most bravely and gallantly
into the fight Wo was ur.der a perfect hail of
bullets and storm of shells. I was struck by a
shell upon the right foot which gave me a very
painful wound, though not serious. Tbe next
was Serg’t. F. M. Barfieid, who was wounded
in the leit arm slightly—tried to load and shoot
after he bad received bis wound, but could not
consequently be left the field. W. R. Sonno-
born was then shot in tho right wrist he load
ed his gun with his left hand, but could not fire
in consequence of the wound received in the
wrist Jeff. Burnett Lewis Avant and John
Bowers was wounded, but very slightly. Baily
Heard, who had given out on the way, alter
resting, fell in with some of our troops and was
wounded in the left hand pretty severely.—
Samuel Odom, who had just been elected 3rd
Lieutenant was shot dead on the field, and
James Perdue also died instantly from a wound
in the thigh. Night overtaking us, we slept :.n
the'edge of tho battle field, and at daylight
(Saturday,) was put upon the march by Stone
wall, when on Tuesday our regiment engaged
the enemy again in a very fierce fight, when
James R. Gallman and Harrison Schofield were
slightly wounded. After the fight was over,
rations for the Company was drawn; when
Corp’l Jonathan Willoughby issued them to
the men, he sat down under a tree to rest and
died instantly, without ever having complained
any before. A better and more faithful soldier
never lived. I also learned to-day, that Michael
C. Hennegar, who was wounded in the battle
of Soven Pines, died on tho 18th of June. Thus
you see how wo have suffered. Twenty-one
have died from disease, four have died on the
battle field, and one taken prisoner—making
26 loss. Our wo.unded are all doing well, and
some have already returned to duty, while oth
ers will return in a few days, there is none that
will be disabled longer than thirty days. B. A.
Heard is tho worst wounded, and his is not at
all serious. We have a number on the sick
list, though all are able to walk about and are
improving.
1 am proud to say that our brave and gallant
Capt Stubbs, has been through all tbe battles
leading his company, and then commanding as
Major, and then as Colonel, and has been in
the thickest and hotest of the fire and is yet un
hurt, he certainly is a second Stonewall. He
is in fine health and good spirits, believing he
is in a good and just cause, goes into it whole
soul, and a kind Providence has thus far shield
ed him from all harm.
From all we see, it appears that the enemy
is in full retreat, and I fear we shall not be able
to capture as many of them as we thought,
though they aro brought in daily and hourly.
Yours truly, Lieut John S. Allen.
FROM THE’ WEST.
We conversed Monday afternoon with a gen
tleman just from Texas, and the West, who
gives us some very interesting particulars of
tbe state of afihirs on his route. He had been
three weeks on the road, traveling by land
most of the way and crossing the Red Rtvcr
twenty five miles below Vicksburg. The lat
ter place was then being bombarded and num
bers of the houses riddled.
At Shreveport three Yankee trading steam
ers with full cargoes come up to the town to
trade. The parties on board exhibited coun
terfeit passports, and endeavored to pass them
selves off as Confederates. Both of them
brought between thirty and forty thousand
pair of cotton cards, the balance of their car
goes being composed of boots, shoes and oth
er much needed articles in the South. The
authorities, however, were too quick for them,
and the military commander oi the post seiz
ed the vessels, put the parties on board in
prison, put up the goods at auction and turn
ed over tbe proceeds to the Confederate Trea
sury. Two steamers of a similar character
being reported below at the mouth of the Oui-
caita River, an expedition, consisting of a de
tachment of four hundred men, was sent off to
seize these also. Our informant did not learn
the result at tbe time be left
more than two thousand negroes into service,
besides taking off all the mules, wheelbarrows,
spades, &a, they could lay hold ot. They sta
ting under the guns of our batteries. Vicks-
g, it is then said, will be as it were i
five miles out in the country. The general mi
ssion was, that they would succeed ir

forces not being able to reach them.
The Yankees promised to return the ne
as soon as they had finished their canal,
people, however, have determined they
never take Vicksburg. Tho lour thoi
they attempted to land were driven off
the loss of thirteen kilted and a large nu
wounded. Had our batteries restrained
fire a little longer it is believed the whole
could have been captured.
