United States Civil War
FIFTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
After the brigade had advanced to the river the 1st brigade occupied the captured works on our left and rear. About 8 P. M. the brigade was relieved by the 4th brigade, and we moved further to the left and threw up earthworks. During the night of May 24th we crossed to the south side of the North Anna and intrenched. "Here we remained, in the vicinity of the Fox House, ' with slight change of position, until the night of May 26th, when orders were received to march. In obeying this order we again found ourselves on the north side of the river, and on the 27th made another rapid flank movement to the left.
