The report praises Grant’s initial success at the fort but notes a later, devastating repulse. Negro troops suffer greatly as officers fall, Bartlett’s detachment is captured after heroic stand, and five battle flags are taken. Lincoln and Grant reportedly discuss at Fortress Monroe as the Army of the Potomac faces another tragic chapter.
