He was three times vigorously attacked by superior numbers of the enemy, and on one occasion his men were driven from the position. He immediately organized and led a counter attack, which proved highly successful. During the whole of the day he moved up and down, under heavy fire, organizing the line and cheering his men, and although the company suffered heavy losses, he was able to hold onto his portion of the line until it was evacuated that night.'
