My force at the beginning of the fight was less than 800 effective men. The loss was as follows:

 

Killed                50

Wounded           132

Missing              21

Total                 203

 

The aggregate loss in the two engagements is as follows:

 

Killed                111

Wounded           289

Missing              231

Total                 631

The missing are either prisoners or killed. Most of them were captured on the mountain on the 14th.

 

Captain Whiting and Lieut. John Birney, C. S. Army, of my staff, were both wounded. They, with Capt. Greene Peyton, assistant adjutant-general, discharged their respective duties with ability and gallantry.
