Merritt's withdrawal inspired the Confederates, who forthwith beganto press Crook, their line of battle advancing with confidence tillit reached the crest whence I had reconnoitred them. From thisground they could see Ord's men emerging from the woods, and thehopelessness of a further attack being plain, the gray linesinstinctively halted, and then began to retire toward a ridgeimmediately fronting Appomattox Court House, while Ord, joined on hisright by the Fifth Corps, advanced on them over t...he ground thatMerritt had abandoned. I now directed my steps toward Merritt, who, having mounted histroopers, had moved them off to the right, and by the time I reachedhis headquarters flag he was ready for work, so a move on the enemy'sleft was ordered, and every guidon was bent to the front. As thecavalry marched along parallel with the Confederate line, and intoward its left, a heavy fire of artillery opened on us, but thiscould not check us at such a time, and we soon reached some highground about half a mile from the Court House, and from here I couldsee in the low valley beyond the village the bivouac undoubtedly ofLee's army.
