them from the timber into a largo field At tho edge of this wood we halted and maintained our position but tho rebel pickets and sharpshooters made it risky to stand erect and the pick eta kept up an irregular popping throughout the day and wo were not sorry when dark permitted us to send details to tho rear and prepare coffee We suffered during the night on our regimental beds of woods as our blankets had boon cheerfully donated to the wounded The 2nd before the sun appeared from behind the darkgreen cedars picket firing was resumed followed by heavy artillery all along the lines Our advanced position made us an especial target for the artillery while the skirmish balls kept up that omi node singing Before noon several of Companies and had fallen on the picket line and Shepherd
