Dr. Grieson's Diary, cited in Greeley's American Conflict, II. 167. This order produced consternation and the greatest dissatisfaction, for it seemed like snatching the palm of victory from the hand just opened to receive it.

General Kearney said, in the presence of several officers--I, Philip Kearney, an old soldier, enter my solemn protest against this order for X retreat.

The following is a list of the casualties in this brigade, on the 31st. They were not under fire on the 1st:
