Headquarters Army Of The Potomac,
May 12, 1864 — 2
o'clock, P. M.
A severe battle is raging, with the advantages thus far on
our side. We have captured to-day over thirty guns, four thousand prisoners,
including three generals. The enemy are strongly posted and entrenched, which,
with their desperation, makes the struggle stubborn.
