The march was resumed at once and upon reaching General Lee's head- 36 A GLANCE BACKWARD quarters late in the afternoon, the cessation of firing indi- cated that the engagement was over. The nth Alabama was soon detached and accompanied by pieces of artillery, took position on the right, and after throwing out a strong picket force, rested for the night without disturbance. About sunrise the next morning, July 2, the brigade formed line and moved to the left, and reaching the proper point front...ed and began to move forward in line of battle to the position assigned us. The nth Alabama occupied the left of the line, and after moving a short distance entered a valley and an open wheat field, and when about half way cross the field, were fired into by a brigade of Federal sharp- shooters in the woods and rear, which produced some con- fusion and a retreat back to the fence so as to escape the fire from the rear. But just at this time the 10th Alabama came up on our right and immediately opposite the Federals in the woods, and after a brisk musketry drove the enemy back and uncovered the right flank of the nth Alabama, thus enabling the brigade to move forward in line and take position which was done at another fence across the field.
