They were wounded at:
IRISH BEND, LA
APRIL 14TH, 1863
Irish Bend, La., April 14, 1863. 4th Division, 19th Army
Corps. At daylight the division, Brig.-Gen. Cuvier Grover
commanding, moved from Mrs. Porter's plantation, near
Centerville, toward Irish bend. The 3rd brigade under Col. H.
W. Birge, with Rodgers' battery had the advance, followed by
the 1st brigade, under Brig.-Gen. William Dwight, with
Closson's battery, while the 2nd brigade, under Col. W. K.
Kimball, brought up the rear. When within 40 rods of where
the road turned to form a right angle with the bend, Birge's
skirmishers became engaged, and soon afterward the enemy
opened with a battery posted in the woods at the angle of the
road. In ordering up his reserves Birge exposed for a time
his right flank, of which situation the Confederates were
quick to take advantage, a force which had been concealed in
the thick undergrowth making a dashing charge upon the flank
and rear of the reserve regiments. This unexpected assault
was bravely met, but the brigade was finally compelled to fall
back. In the meantime Dwight had come up and he now, with the
aid of Rodgers' battery, drove the enemy from Birge's flank
after which he attacked and pressed back the force in front.
Reconnaissances disclosed the fact that the Confederates had
taken up a still stronger position, where their right was
protected by the gunboat Diana, thus giving an opportunity for
the concentration of a greater portion of their strength on
the left. For awhile the Diana kept up a cross-fire on the
front, but the enemy did not attack. Grover then ordered a
general advance, when the infantry and cavalry retired and the
Diana dropped down stream, where she was blown up and burned.
The Union loss was 49 killed, 264 wounded and 30 missing. The
exact losses of the enemy were not learned but Grover's men
buried 21 Confederate dead and carried off 35 of their
wounded.
