• “Annadale.” —This is the name of the delight
ful residence of our friend, Col. S. C. Sjtambaugh,
so favorably known in the social and political cir
cles, here and at Washington. We have rarely
stood on a spot which nature and art have combined

and delight meets the enraptured eye.—
ln the summer season,, when the birds carol in

REPORT OF LIEUT. HAMBRIGHT. .
Head-Quarters, 2d Regt. Pa. Vol’s, )
Citadel, City ofMexico; Sept. 14, 1847. j
To Lieut. Col. John IV. Geary, Comm’g 2d Regi
ment, Pa. Volunteers.
Sir : In reporting to you a detail of the move
ments and part taken by my command in the battles
ofthe 11th; 12th, and I3th inat., in all of which the
Company was actively engaged, I give yod tho
: facts as minutely and correctly to the best of my
recollection as they occurred. * „
On the 11th inst., the Company took position in
line and marched to the Camp near Tacubaya, where
it arrived about 12 o’clock, same night.
We again resumed our inarch early on the morn
ing of the 12th inst., to the scene of action, and
, took position in the trenches on the right of our
battery, to prevent a charge from the enemy’s cav- ■
airy and a body of troops that were in position in that,
direction, where we remained under a heavy fire of
grape and cannister from the Castle, and of mus
ketry from the skirmishers on our right, until 6
o’clock, same evening, when we were relieved by
a portion of the New York Regiment.
Whilst iii this position Sergeant Cummings was
slightly wounded in the shoulder.
After remaining in quarters a short time, I re
ceived orders to march my command to assist in
erecting a battery, designed to operate on the ene
my’s fortifications, in which we were engaged until
the morning ofthe 13th, when we again returned
to quarters just as the line was forming to com
mence the storm, in which we took our position •
and moved on until within reach of the enemy’s
shot, when we filed left in the direction of, their
works, through a swamp in which were a number •
of ditches and trenches, filled with water to the
depth of three or four feet, which were crossed
with great difficulty, and exposing us for a length
of time to a most galling fire from the Castle and
the cross-fire of their troops on our right flank, but
gained-cover under the walls, about one hundred
yards distant from their batteries, with but the'.loss
of one man, Samuel Morgan, who fell at the com
mencement of the charge.
After rallying and forming the company, we
flanked around under cover of the walis to the left,
and charged up the height, having ladders to carry
which • somewhat retarded the quickness of our
movements, and exposed «us'to a raking fire from
the batteries, and musketry, but succeeded in scal
ing the walls without further loss.
After all their works at the Castle of Chapultepec
were in our possession, :I was again ordered to re
sume my post, and marched my command to the
storming and taking of_the enemies batteries on the
road leading to the cityj and at the Garita, in whieh
Josiah Winders was killed, ami Wm. Mendenhall _
and Henrv Rist wounded.
My command now took position under cover, being
exposed to a destructive fire from the Citadel, which
we could return, and maintain our position until
further orders.
- After the firiug ceased, we were again detailed
tor labor, and were engaged in building the battery
and placing cannon until the morning of the 14th
when the Citadel was surrendered.
Before closing this statement', I would be doing
great injustice to my command i if their gallant and
active services were not brought to your notice,
especially themon-commissioned officers, to whom
in a great measure is due tKe credit of keeping the
files closed and in assisting and urging on those who
were overcome by fatigue in the several charges.
I would also beg leave to report that the absence
of several of my; command on the evening of the
13th and-the morning of the 14th, was owing to their
being detailed to assist in- removinglthe wounded ;
they immediately joined their command after being
relieved. ’ 1
There were but four of the company who were
not engaged in these actions, they having been left
in the hospital at San Angelo on the 11th inst., sick
and unable to march. I have given you thus a cor
rect statement of the operations and active part
taken by in the battles ! of the 11th,
12th'and 13tn, and respectfully report the same for
your consideration. H. A. HAMSRIGHT,
Lieutenant Commanding Company H. To Lieu
tenant Col. John W. Geary, Commanding 2nd

To the list of killed and wounded of my com
mand, I have added that of Company G. the one I
was first attached to, and to which belong the per
sons from Lancaster. ;
