ers" were on the right, fighting behind trees and logs, while Colonel Frank Anderson, with portions of the 59th, was immediately behind the breastwork. The remainder of the regiment was in reserve, under Major Lawson, and, as the position admitted only a few men to engage at one time, waited for orders to advance. After the fighting had continued about an hour, Col. Anderson sent to Major Lawson for a reinforcement of three companies. He chose Capt. Dickinson's, Swan's company under Lieut.

to vie with each other in their efforts to minister to our comfort. We are especially indebted to the good people of King and Queen county. At every step we ware met with scores of young ladies and kind hearted matrons, who showered blessing upon our heads, literally strewing our path way with flowers, reviving our exhausted soldiers with refreshing drinks, and filling their haversacks with the more substantial eatables, so necessary for those who were undergoing such great physical exertion. We are especially indebted to the Messrs. Ryland, Bagby, Drs. Bland, Pollard, Roy, Spencer, and many others whose names we did not learn. Their kindness and attention have affected us with feelings of the liveliest sensibility and sincerest gratitude. In the hour of trial and danger, when the battle rages fierce, and the blows fall thick and fast, we will remember the fair daughters and kind mothers of old King and Queen, and strike for their safety, their homes, and their firesides.
