Chickamagua after battle report:
Report of Col. Hiram Hawking, Fifth Kentucky Infantry.
HDQRS. FIFTH KENTUCKY,
Near Chattanooga, October 20, 1863.
SIR:As directed, I submit the following as the operations of my
command, on the 19th and 20th ultimo, in the battle of
Chickamauga:
My position was on the left of your brigade, in line of battle
ready for action on the 19th; frequently shelled during the day.
On the 20th, marched in my position in line over the battle-field
some 3 miles (frequently under fire and in range of shell and
canister from the enemy's guns), when we came up to the enemy
in strong position on a range of hills. We were immediately
ordered to charge. My men rushed forward, reserving their fire
until within very short range, and, after a desperate struggle,
drove the enemy before them, and crossed the ridge under a
heavy cross-fire from the left and very severe direct and
cross-fire the right, at least 80 yards in advance of the brigade,
driving the enemy from my front, when the command on my left
rallied, moved forward, and drove the enemy from my left. I
then moved by the right flank and rejoined my brigade. The
enemy, still firing on me from the right, soon with great fury
assailed my front. I ordered my command forward, swinging a
little to the right, and again drove the enemy and crossed the
ridge some 40 paces in advance of the brigade, and nearly
silenced the fire in my front, and was directing my fire to the
right when part of Col. Trigg's command passed to my left,
covering part of my front. My ammunition being nearly
exhausted, ordered my men to fall back and rejoin the brigade,
and replenish their boxes with ammunition from dead and
wounded, as far as practicable.
Col. Palmer, having been moved from the right to the left,
placed my command in center of the brigade, which was ordered
forward by the colonel commanding. Changing direction to the
right (it then being near dusk), moved but a short distance, when
a line of battle was discovered 40 to 60 yards distant, who first
announced that they were friends and then that they surrendered.
Stealing this advantage, they treacherously fired upon us, killing
and wounding several of my men and officers. Among the killed
was Lieut. Yates, a brave and gallant officer. The same volley
shattered the leg of Capt. Calvert, who since died.
My men recovering from the temporary surprise caused by the
treachery of the enemy, reformed, and, with fixed
bayonets, advanced on the enemy, joined by Maj. French, then
by Col. Palmer, in conjunction with Col. Trigg, and captured
two regiments of the enemy, who surrendered to Col. Trigg
during Col. Kelly's temporary absence. As the column
commenced moving with the prisoners a volley was fired into our
ranks, causing a good deal of confusion, it then being nightfall.
Many of the prisoners scattered. Col. Trigg's command moved
off, leaving them. They would have made their escape had I not
recaptured them (249, including 3 field officers). Moved them
from the battle-ground and turned them over to Lieut.-Col. Wade,
except the 3 field officers, who were sent by Col. Kelly to division
headquarters.
My loss was 14 killed on the field, 75 wounded, 1 captured, and
1 missing.
Maj. Mynheir fell severely wounded while urging the men
forward in making first charge.
Capt. Joseph Desha was wounded early in the action (shot
through the arm near the shoulder); remained on the field with
his company until the enemy was ours.
Although this was the first time, with few exceptions, that my
officers or men were under fire, they behaved with becoming
gallantry and courage, never faltering when ordered forward.
Lieut. Col. G. W. Connor and Adjt. Thomas B. Cook displayed
great gallantry and coolness, and deserve honorable mention.
My company officers and men, with few exceptions, seemed to
vie with each other in deeds of gallantry.
Very respectfully,
H. HAWKINS,
Col., Comdg. Regt.
Lieut. MASTIN,
Acting Assistant Adjutant-Gen.
