Second Battle of Manassas

August 30, 1862
3:15 p.m.

1st Brigade (Sullivan), First Division (Hatch)
Third Corps (McDowell), Army of Virginia, USA

24th New York Infantry
("Oswego Regiment")
Maj. Andrew Barney

"Those of us on the embankment were too few to even attempt to drive out the Confederates on the other side, and accordingly lay as flat to the slope as we could, crawling occasionally to the top, and discharging our muskets, held horizontally over our heads. Bullets were pouring in from the infantry beyond us. Our second line gave way and ran back to the cover of the woods, leaving us on the embankment to our fate."
- Cpl. Theron Haight
