enemy's fine metal spreading its fire
to the converging lines. plowing the

guns seemed proud of their undivided
honors and organized confusion. The
Confederates had the benefit of con-
verging fire into the enemy's massed
position, but the superior metal of the
enemy nzutIalized the advantage of
position. The brave and steady work
progressed.
Before this the Confederates of the
left were driven from their captured
trenches, and hope of their effective CO.

moved down the slope, and continued
to draw the fire of the enemy until the
smoke lifted and drifted to the rear
when every gun was turned upon the
infantry columns. The batteries that
had been drawn off were replaced by
others that were fresh. Soldiers and
officers began to fan, some to rise no
more, others to find their way to the
hospital tents. Single files were cut

days. On the afternoon of July 2, when
the division was moving to the assist
ance of the Third Corps, Col. McDou-
gall was ordered to remain in reserve
in the rear. Gen. Hancock came riding
up in great haste. and ordered him to
charge the enemy's advance, which had
broken thru our lines. and reached 20
or 80 rods behind them, and was in the
act of turning the right flank Of the bri-
gfde. The regiment had about 400 in
line at the time, but so intense was
| the fire to which 1t was subjected in
this charge that in less than 20 min
utes 1S5 were killed or wounded, among
| the latter being the Colonel OF the regi-
