General Walthall in his report said: The fine brigade which was posted in my rear for support, though it had the shelter of the ridge, sustained considerable loss, mainly from the enemy's artillery. Its commander, Brig.-Gen. W. F. Tucker, was severely wounded, while observing the enemy's movements from my position during the first day's engagement, and was succeeded in command by Col. Jacob H.

General Tucker was not in active service again. On September 15, 1881, he was killed by an assassin at Okolona, Miss. Major-General Earl Van Dorn was born near Port Gibson, Miss., September 17, 1820.
