Report of Col. H. R. Feild, First Tennessee Infantry.

CAMP NEAR BRYANTSVILLE, KY.,
October 12, 1862.

My regiment went into the action of the 8th instant in rear and on the
left of the brigade at the field where we captured the eight-gun battery.
I lost only some 3 or 4 men killed and wounded at that place. The
brigade was ordered immediately forward to take another battery about
a half mile in advance, planted on a very steep hill, commanding a large
corn field, through which we had to advance. This battery and its
support was making terrible havoc with the right wing of the brigade,
so reported by the field officers of the Forty-first Georgia to me,
whereupon I sent Capt. Malone to Gen. Maney asking for my
regiment to be sent to the right, which request was granted. After
deploying the regiment to the extreme right it was ordered to charge,
which it did not splendid style, with close, compact ranks, killing all the
horses and men of the battery and driving its support away. In this
charge the brigade became very much disorganized, and after taking the
battery by some mistake fell back in confusion. My regiment lost in that
charge its gallant lieutenant-colonel (John Petterson) and some 40 or 50
men and officers. I rallied the regiment at the foot of the hill, no other
regiment forming but mine, some 30 or 40 men of the other regiments
falling into the ranks. In the mean time the enemy came back to the
guns behind the battery, and also marched two regiments on our left on
a wooded hill which lay at right angles with the hill that we charged up.
I led the regiment up the hill alone, without any support, under a heavy
fire of musketry, driving the enemy back and taking his guns again. The
regiments on our left then opened their fire upon us, killing and
wounding a dozen officers and men at each discharge. Just then I
discovered Hardee's battle-flag coming up on our left about 500 yards
in rear. Expecting that the regiment that carried the flag would engage
the enemy that were cross-firing upon us I determined to hold the hill
at every cost, thinking they would drive the enemy before them; they
failed to do so and fell back before they had arrived in 200 yards of my
position; whereupon I ordered my regiment to retire, which it did in
much better order than could have been expected, leaving half their
number dead and wounded on the top of the hill.

My whole loss amounts to 181 killed, wounded, and missing.

Respectfully submitted.

H. R. FEILD,
Col., Cmdg. First Tennessee Regt.

Capt. THOMAS H. MALONE, Assistant Adjutant-Gen.
