I have just received your note, and contents noted. I beg leave to report the following facts concerning the Resaca battle:
We (the Second Brigade) were ordered at between 10 and 11 o'clock to advance through an open field, which we did, and drove the enemy from their first line of rifle-pits, where we engaged the enemy for three hours and forty minutes, when we were relieved by the Fourth Army Corps. I lost in killed, 16 men; wounded, 92; commissioned officers, 6; missing, 14; total, 128.
Respectfully,
JAS. T. SHELLEY,
Colonel Fifth Tennessee Volunteers.
Lieut. C. D. RHODES,
Acting Assistant Adjutant-General, Second Brigade.
P.S. A great many of the wounded here reported have since died from their wounds from want of attention, as I am told.
