Starkweather's brigade and Stone's and Bush's batteries were on the extreme left and rear of Terrill's brigade, and checked the attack. General McCook, perceiving that he was assailed by at least three times his number, sent an aide-de-camp, Lieutenant L. M. Hosea, to General

equent short halts were made while the skirmishers were feeling their way. Once, when the, halt was prolonged and nothing broke the deep silence of the night except an occasional shot followed by the never-to-be-forgotten ping of the minie-ball, General Newton, who was riding with the third or fourth regiment from the advance, called out: Is any one of my staff here?

The road was filled with soldiers, some lying down, others resting on their guns, but a passage was quickly cleared. At Hazel Run Colonel Shaler and Colonel Hamblin were found standing together. Here the enemy made a determined resistance. Their pickets were but a few yards distant. On the other side of the creek the road made a sharp ascent and curved to the right

Stone therefore placed two of his three regiments on the Cashtown pike, so as to face Oak Hill.

th end of Seminary Ridge. When the cannonading which preceded Pickett's charge opened, General Farnsworth rode to the position marked A upon the map [p. 394], and I think Kilpatrick joined him. A long skirmish line of the enemy was at that moment moving toward us. I was commanded to take one squadron, charge as foragers, ride to cover of the stone house (Bushman's), and wait for orders. At our approach the enemy's skirmish line fell back. We rode to the house with the loss of two men. Captain Stone was sent with a squadron to my support. We remained some time at the Bushman house, near the enemy's batteries, and returned under fire without loss. At 5 o'clock that afternoon we went into position, and were resting behind a battery on the low, wooded hill at the left of Round Top, and separated from it by a narrow valley. The enemy's picket line confronted our own near the base of the hill, but there was no firing. There was an oppressive stillness after the day's excitement. I
