Breckinridge's Division coming up, one of his brigades, Echols', was put on the right of the Sixty-sixth, and Finnegan's in reserve. Artillery from A. P. Hill's Corps supported our line, firing over our heads. Among these was Major Charles R. Grandy's Battery, Norfolk Light Artillery Blues. Just at dawn on June 3d the enemy's line advanced.
