The Tide, still possessed of all the stormy elements, overlapped Tech with Gilmer's passes and Intermittent line thrusts to move back to within five yards of the Gulden Beach. Again the Engineers constructed a defensive rampart to hold back the flood. The Crimsons' had wasted a lot of energy In two long marches that availed nothing at the end.
