First Sharp Shooters
''For the handsome part performed by Harriman's brigade of this division at the latter point I respectfully refer you to his own report and that of Brevet Major General Hartranft, commanding at that part of the line.
Through the day offensive demonstrations were kept up, and the batteries playing in aid of the more serious work of the day going on further to the left.
in the afternoon and evening the enemy strengthened their line opposite me; but about midnight of the 2d reports came up from Colonel Ely, commanding 2d brigade, and Colonel James Bentliff, now commanding 3d brigade, by virtue of his rank, that there were signs of the enemy's withdrawing from our front, leaving only their picket line.
