I returned to camp and started the commandteenth September, we reached the vicinity of Bolivar Heights, where the enemy was strongly intrenched, shortly after noon on the same day, and bivouacked on the Charlestown road, just beyond the range of his guns, until two o'clock the next day. At that hour we were ordered to move, by an unfrequented road, to our left, and almost at right angles with the Charlestown road, to a position nearer the Potomac, supporting the Baltimore battery of light artillery, commanded by Captain Brockenbrough and attached to this brigade, which opened upon the enemy, and continued its fire until dark, the enemy responding, but without damage to us.
