Large masses of their infantry were seen continually shifting their positions. Thus the scene went on till night. While the siege of the town was thus progressing in our front, we were admonished by the continuous deep roar of guns in our rear, that bloody scenes were there also disturbing the peace of this holy Sabbath day. McClellan with 200, 000 troops fresh from Washington City, was pressing upon our rear, attempting to relieve Harper's Ferry. With 25 or 30, 000, as near as we could learn, ...he pursued McLaws' Division with two Brigades of Anderson's, operating in rear of the Ferry. Gens. Howell Cobb's and Semmes' Brigades were sent to guard the pass through which we came over the mountain, 6 miles back. An- derson's two Brigades guarded the gap below us through which the river and railroad passes, while Barksdale's and Kershaw's Brigades held Maryland Heights. Thus it will be seen that our entire "force was six Brigades, while in front of us was the Potomac River with no point of crossing but Harper's Ferry, and that defended by 12, 000 of the enemy; on each side of us almost impassable mountains lay, while in our rear was pressing an army of three times ours in numbers.
