. . . of the Iowa 14th, who left Fort Donelson Sunday night last. He has been on the sick list some time past, but was able to be with his regiment at Donelson during the three days fighting. He contradicts the report of the cowardice of Capt. Littler of the 2nd Regiment – says he heard nothing of it on the ground, and is confident if any such exhibition of the white feather hat taken place he should have heard of it, being with the 2nd or in its immediate vicinity most of the time.
