Then recrossed the Potomac at Williamsport and marched on Harper's Ferry through Martinsburg. The evening of the 14th we advanced down the Winchester and Harper's Ferry railroad. The Seventh regiment was in advance, and its skirmishers, commanded by Captain Knox, succeeded in driving the enemy's sharpshooters from a high position overlooking the railroad. The remainder of the brigade reached this position after midnight, and there slept upon their arms until day, when every one was in readiness and awaited the orders to advance. After a short but rapid and well-directed fire from our batteries, the enemy displayed several white flag

Manassas Junction--Soon after the advance of the troops from Bristoe station reached the Junction, they were fired upon by a distant battery of the enemy, posted in the direction of the battle-field of Manassas. This artillery was driven off, and retreated in the direction of Centreville. Soon after, a considerable body of Federal infantry, under Brigtown, formed his line of battle in two lines, the first composed of the brigades of Pender, Gregg and Thomas, under the command of General Gregg, and the second of Lane's, Archer's and Brockenbrough's brigades, under command of General Archer. * * * * * The Federal infantry lined the high banks of the Virginia shore, while the art

page 301, Capt. W. Gordon McCabe says, in a foot note to his address made before the A. N. V. Assoc'n, that the defence of Battery Gregg, April 2d, 1865, had wrongfully been attributed to Harris's Mississippi brigade, and that the defence was made by Lane's North Carolina brigade. The source or manner of his information he does not state, but advises by all means the publication of General Lane's official report. In the January number, 1877, page 19, appears the official report of Brig.-Gen'l J. H. Lane, accompanied by statements of several officers of his brigade. In the February number, 1877, page 82, is an extract from A soldier's story of the War, by Napier Bartlett, giving an account of the defence of Fort Gregg. The July number, 1877, page 18, contains an account from the pen of Maj.-Gen'l C. M. Wilcox of The defence of Battery Gregg and evacuation of Petersburg. As the defence of Battery Gregg, April 2d, 1865, has thus been made a matter of controversy, I shall now state

History of Lane's North Carolina brigade. by General James H. Lane. Campaign 1863. Winter quarters at Moss neck. Throughout the winter our brigade was chiefly engaged in doing picket duty on the Rappahannock. When the roads became impassable it was ordered to assist in corduroying the same. Some of this work was done during and just after the snow storms of that year. The snow had to be removed before the logs could be laid; and at night, as the men were not able to return to their quarters on account of the distance, their sufferings were intense. In the Spring, when the enemy renewed their demonstrations at Fredericksburg, we were ordered up and occupied the second line of works near Hamilton's Crossing; but we soon left this point to take part in the ever memorable
