'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in command of a post which was attacked by the enemy. He reported the attack while the enemy were still 1,000 yards off, and, giving their exact line of advance, enabled the artillery to bring fire to bear which compelled them to deploy. His personal courage and example were largely responsible for the repulse of the enemy with heavy loss.'
