The notorious confederate spy father Ryan has been aprehended by the forces of the union and is being held in the ruined red roofed house. The confederates must extract him by the other edge of the field trough the enemy army.
A piket of unionists guards the prisioner
Launching a rebel yell the confederates rush the house
Bayonetting all but two of the guards
The bulk of yanks shows up on the middle of the field, shooting their rifled muskets
A shocked survivor runs for dear life
Colonel Mcpherson leds the remaining unionists into battle at the sound of the gun
He forms most of his command into a mass of troops
Concentrated fire blews away the reb artillery
However the southerners return with a devastating volley that leaves the body of troops ragged and retreating in confusion
Yankee officers try to restablish order in vain
