2d Virginia regiment, with three companies of the City Battalion, were ordered to attack the enemy on the right of the turnpike, near Brook Church. They went into the fight, and with great gallantry attempted to lodge the enemy from some breastworks of logs and rocks that he had thrown up, but found them too strongly posted. They then fell back across a field to a wood on this side within range of the enemy, and here a spirited firing was kept up until 12 o'clock, when the 19th Virginia, Col. Gant, was sent up to relieve the battalion companies. They, however, declined being relieved, and remained until their ammunition was exhausted. At 4 o'clock the whole force was ordered back, and the firing ceased. The following is a list of the killed and wounded in the battalion companies: Company B.--Killed: J S Layne.
