In Snuff a short time we reached the Oostenaule ‘river which we crossed on pontoons, having destroyed the i bridges as they retreated. We came ‘up with the enemy near Kingston and expected a battle. This, however, was not Johnston's tactics, for during the preceeding winter he had built hreast- works on every eminence from Dalton to the Chattahoocha, near Atlanta As fast as we would get possession of a line of works he would fail back to the .pext. Passing Kingston and Cassville without a battle we were thrown on the right. creek we had no sooner reached the high ground than we were attacked by a heavy force who were advancing to fight us a: the creek. This was the beginning of the battle of Newhope church. " The battle of Newhope church was in many of its aspects the most pe- caliar battle in which the 28th Pennsyl- vania Volunteers took part. It com- .menced immediately after we crossed Punipkin Vine creek and lasted nine days. Al of the regiments of our bri- gade except ours were formed on he left of tle road. Ours, the 8th, ordered to the right and advanced rap- idly in open skirmish order. After advancing about a mile a very heavy infantry fire where we left the brigade was in progress. As yet we had seen no enemy and cur orders were still to advance. The roar of battle indicated a heavey force of the enemy confront ing our brigade. Our men became un- easy and as Volunteers, we began discuss the situation. All agreed that we were in a perilous position for if the brigade was defeated there could be no doubt that the enemy would turn on us with every advantage in their favor. It was suggested that we march by the left flank aatii we came upon the enemy and then take part in the battie. Our captain wisely determined ts disobey the general order and act on the suggestion to move back and assis cour brave comrades who, bene more apparent every momenl, were overpowered. It did not take us long to get on the flank of the eneiny poured in a most deadly cross fire The enemy did not wait for another fire from us, but fell back imme ‘leaving us masters of the field Ging to our brigade o congratulate them on their stardy fighting, we¢ saw at a glance that although they had not yielded an inch of ground, they had lost very heavy in killed and wounded.
