When Crawford's troops were driven back by A. P. Hill, he halted on the
edge of a wheatfield, where he was reënforced by the Tenth Maine. For
nearly half an hour it held its own, losing out of its 461 officers and
men 173 in killed and wounded. A few days after the battle some survivors
had a picture taken on the exact spot where they had so courageously
fought. The remains of the cavalry horses can be seen in the trampled
field of wheat. From left to right these men are: Lieutenant Littlefield,
Lieutenant Whitney, Lieut.-Colonel Fillebrown, Captain Knowlton, and
First-Sergeant Jordan, of Company C.
