44 Back to Manassas junction
Oct 14th The h[?] [?] in the direction of Manassas gap. We fell back to broad run stream and halted to get diner. We had but just done when we were ordered to put out the fires, then we started and had not been gon more than five minutes when the ball opened and the rebs shelled the ground where we eat our dinner. We then fell back to Manasas junction and the firing still continued. We staid thair until about sunset, and then double-quicked back to where the firing comensed, about four miles. The 3rd division of one 5th Corps and the 2nd Corps done the fighting that afternoon. They charged on the rebel batery taking five guns out of six, and about 300 prisoners. We did not lose but few men. As General Griffin rode along I heard him say, men for god sake was there no way that you could not have taken that other gun.
