Cheat Mountain, September 16, 1861. We have survived three brigades of Confederate opposition, and are looking towards moving forward. However, as our wounded are treated for their wounds, we count a little over sixty missing men. General Reynolds, the commander in this area, is going through the ranks congratulating our men. We have forced the Rebels back to where they came from. It was discovered that General Lee was the presiding commander over the Rebel forces! It is believed that the Confederates were unorganized and without proper leadership. These combinations lead to the Rebel defeat at the hands of our three-hundred man force. Once Col. John Washington was killed in action, the confederates accepted defeat. In fact, the enemy retreated before our reinforcements arrived. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is written in the position of a Union War Journalist.
