A heavy column was moved from Norfolk and Fortress Monroe to meet us, but, though we offered battle, no attack was made, and when we advanced, with Companies D and K of the Forty-ninth in the brigade front as skirmishers, the enemy fell back to the swamp. On the evening of the 10th we returned, via South Quay and Murfee's Station, to Weldon. On March 30th we began our march from Weldon by way of Murfreesboro and Winton, the latter place having been totally destroyed by the Federals in one of their raids, to Harrellsville, in Bertie county. At this place, Coleraine, and on the Chowan and beautiful Albemarle Sound, the month of April, 1864, was spent in the fullest enjoyment of all the delights of springtime; beautiful scenery on sound and river, and in the opening life of woods and flowers

On the following day about noon the Confederates appeared simultaneously on both sides of the Nansemond. Anderson's and Pickett's divisions, coming from the south, one by the route debouching upon Fort Dix, the other by the Somerton Road, drove back the Federals into their works; whilst at the west, Hood, following the Roanoke Railway, took position along the water
