Stopped at Verdiersville, near Colonel N., who had used most of the artillery engaged in this corps — his battalion alone being in. Sunday, 8th.--About one P. M. moved toward Anticon Church, on Terry's Creek of North Anna, and camped on Po river, near Shady Grove Church-thirteen miles. Monday, 9th.--Moved on to Spottsylvania New Court-house. Fighting yesterday and today at Court-house. We got between Grant and Richmond. Marched seven miles. Tuesday, 10th.--At sunrise, put Captain S. in position in Daniels' brigade, and Captain J. in position in Ramseur's line. Captain D. in reserve, but near; Captain G. in reserve, near Court-house. Captain S. was about three hundred yards from a dense pine thicket, with an open field be
Church, seven miles beyond. The Sixth corps is now passing down the road in the direction taken by the Fifth corps last evening. The affair last night, indicated by the cannonading, was the holding in check of the enemy's strong rear guard by Burnside and Wright, which was handsomely done. From all present indications we will have no battle this side of the line of the North Anna river. headquarters Second corps., May 22--6 A. M. Up to this hour all is quiet.

nt Ben Falls, struck in the leg, and being in command of the color company I sent him to the rear. The following day he reported back, and I asked why he did not stay. Oh, he said, some fool will get hold of the color and lose it. I guess I had better stand by. We marched to Williams's Tavern, where we went into line of battle and threw up works. From this time on we were engaged every day. The 8th, we had a lively brush at Todd's Tavern, and drove the rebels a mile; the 9th, crossed Po River; the 10th, recrossed and engaged the enemy at Laurel Hill. We found them strongly intrenched and a charge was ordered. The opinion of every officer and man was that we could not dislodge them, as we must charge a long distance over an open field. General Barlow was to lead and the 19th was to be the directing battalion. The order to our division was, Follow the colors of the 19th. With cheers for General Barlow we advanced over the crest of the hill, the rebels opening on us with a ter

me of the Federals got to the fence, and actually used the bayonet; but in less than half an hour they were driven rapidly back, leaving five hundred dead and mortally wounded, and two hundred prisoners in the hands of the victorious Confederates. On the 10th May, the struggle was renewed at an early hour, Warren's corps being the one most hotly engaged against the Confederates, though all were fighting heavily. About half-past 5 P. M. two divisions of Hancock's Second corps crossed the Po River, and advanced against Lee's left, making a strong show of giving battle there. Lee, supposing the enemy was massing forces at that point, moved his troops during the night and next day to that quarter, but, in the morning of the 12th, it was found that Hancock was again in the centre, and vigorously assaulting Johnson's division. This division held a salient of the Confederate line; and as the enemy, taking the forces within in flank, rushed over the angle, they were quickly in possessi

The battery was engaged on the Po River on May 9, 10 and 11, 1864, and in operations in the Shenandoah Valley, also the battles of Spotsylvania Court House and Cold Harbor, Va. Having lost 40 men sent home during August, the battery was active in the battles of Opequon and Fisher's Hill, Va.; after this engagement the veterans not reenlisted left the battery, while the remaining men participated in the engagement of Cedar Creek, and, after a short interval, 85 of these were transferred to the 9th Mass.
