after the enemy until 9 p.m.; halted for the night. April 5, still continued the march until about 9 p.m. April 6, we had a hard march, and about 4 p.m. we went into position about 800 yards from the enemy, and commenced shelling them rapidly; it did not last long, as the enemy gave way, and we were soon on the move again; we expended 145 rounds of ammunition; we parked for the night soon after passing over the battle-field. April 7, at 9 a.m. we again took up the march after the retreating foe; passed through Farmville and parked for the night. April 8 found us still on the march. April 9, marched till about 12 a.m. [noon], parked, and while at this point heard the enemy had surrendered; about 5 p.m. I fired a salute of thirty-six guns, then went into park for the night. Did not move April 10. April 11 found us on the march back to Burkeville; reached here April 13, having had a hard march, with the loss of three horses.

I am, sir, your very obedient servant,
