Description
After the fiery fighting delivered by the Confederates under the late General McCulloch, the Union Calvary ran off to inform the rest of the Union Army that the Confederates were heading their way with strength and determination. The German speaking regiments stood their ground - and after losing both of their leaders, the Confederates did not pursue the Union and stayed put in the woods.
