Capt. Comdg.
Bivouack 11th Virginia Regiment,
Oct. 19th, 1862.
Colonel: Agreeable to your order, I herewith transmit a report as made by Capt. Mitchell, of the part taken in the Battle of Manassas, August 30th, 1862, by the 11th Va. Regiment.
"The regiment went into this action under command of Major Adam Clement, and in conjunction with other regiments of this brigade captured two batteries; drove their supports from the field and held a position a hundred yards in advance of the position of the batteries, keeping the enemy at bay—we being too few—having lost considerably—to advance against such odds as confronted us, until our supports came upon the field, when we retired by order to reform.
"In consequence of the absence of the Adjutant, 1 am unable to state, with any certainty, the number carried into this engagement. Both officers and men conducted themselves with their usual skill, courage and bravery, losing nine (9) killed and fifty-five (55) wounded
Respectfully,
Act. Adjutant.
