Second Battle of Manassas

August 29, 1862
5:45 p.m.

1st Division (Stevens), Ninth Corps (Reno)
Army of the Potomac, USA

Second Brigade
Col. Daniel Leasure


"As we approached, we poured a well directed fire upon the enemy. Our line charged, and as the enemy scrambled up the other side of the embankment we loosed a destructive fire and seized the abandoned position. But, soon the enemy opened a heavy fire. Seeing that it was useless to attempt to hold the position, General Stevens ordered me to fall back before the way was completely cut off."
- Col. Daniel Leasure
