In the dark- ness much confusion arose throughout the column, and the troops became mixed to a degree which made it difficult to straighten them out again. The COLD HARBOR. 210 night had been intensely hot and breathless, and the long march through roads deep with dust, which rose in suffocating cl'ouds as it was stirred by thou- sands of feet of men and horses and by the wheels of the artillery, had been trying almost beyond the limits of endurance. It was not till between six and seven o'cloc...k of the 2d of June that the troops began to arrive at Cold Harbor, and then in an exhausted condition. Upon Hancock's representa- tions as to the state of his command, General Meade postponed the attack to 5 p. m., and then put it off until half past four the next morning. The Confederate army was at last at bay, close on Richmond, the city being distant only about six miles. It was no longer practicable to turn either flank of Lee's position. His right rested on the Chickahominy. His left was hidden amid the wooded swamps of the Totopotomoy and the Mata- dequin.
