Firing 9 rounds at the enemy's battery, it was silenced and we remained in position until the following morning (19th), when we followed the movements of the brigade during the day, except that at 9 a.m. the battery was ordered to the front, but fired only 2 rounds and returned to the brigade, and that about 4 p.m., when the brigade was ordered to the front, the battery, by order of General Stewart, remained in its position. At dark on the same day we were ordered to the rear with four pieces of artillery and one caisson, captured by the brigade. We took them to Alexander's Bridge, where we encamped for the night and reported to the brigade at 8 o'clock on the following morning (20th). We took our position in center of the brigade, where we remained during the day until the brigade was ordered forward to charge, when we remained in position. At 5.30 p.m. we were ordered to the front, and took position in front of the brigade and opened on the enemy with shell and canister, firing 69 rounds.
