2nd Lieut. Hiram Morse of "I" to be 1st Lieut. Of Co "I" vice Linscott killed in battle.
Our chaplain has not yet reported.
We advanced our lines half a mile last evening with little loss.
I write this as we are lying in the line of battle behind our rifle pit works not more than 600 or 800 yards from the enemy's works.
We have been exposed to a heavy cannonading all the morning, but the 20th has as yet lost only one man - Au- gustus Ellis of Co "D" severely wounded in head. We are expecting a warm engagement.
