United States Civil War
FIFTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
For two or three hours the regiment lay under a hot fire of shot and shell from the enemy's guns, sustaining a slight loss in wounded, amongst the number Captain Pulford of Co. C, a brave and most efficient officer, who was mortally wounded by a round shot. At dark the regiment was sent on picket, and remained out till three o'clock, when it was ordered in, and made a rapid maron on the road towards City Point, and encamped a portion of the day and all night amid mud and rain, and on Thursday morning, July 3d, marched across the Chickahominy creek to our present position.
