Hancock concludes his report of operations at Deep Bottom as follows: I continued holding the line during the 29th witter dark on the 29th, . . . . I withdrew the entire command from Deep Bottom, and reported . . . . at Petersburg, on the morning of the 30th,y identical with those furnished me in July, when operating from Deep Bottom. These were, in brief, a demonstration in force against the it was a failure, and the troops were not finally disembarked at Deep Bottom until 9 o'clock on the morning of the 13th,—an inauspicious delaght of the 16th, a fleet of steamers was sent from City Point to Deep Bottom, returning at 4 o'clock A.

was no relief, nothing but an incessant tramp. We sometimes met parties of Rebels on the way, who seemed much pleased at having taken so many of the Second Corps. I reckon we have got about all of Hancock's Butterflies, they would say. Go to Deep Bottom, and see! was the bitter rejoinder. This generally put an end to their questions.

To reach them we were obliged to march about three miles out, for the thirteen-inch mortar, the Dictator, which we had seen a month before on the City Point road as we came back from Deep Bottom, dropped its shells so neatly on the railroad just out of Petersburg that the track was impassable.
