Saturday, 4th–We remained in line of battle all night, not being allowed to build any fires. This morning we moved out about two miles nearer the upper bridge, the rebels having left the vicinity during the night. We remained here, fortifying the bridge. Our teams and batteries came across the bridge this morning. General Mower’s division lost several men here at the bridge yesterday morning about the time that we were crossing below.[1]
[1] There was a concerted move by the Union army all along the line. –Ed.
