Civil War
FOURTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
In that division were also the 1st and 16th Michigan, the former in the 1st brigade and the latter in the 3d. The extract from Colonel Stockton's report is as follows:
just before sundown (the 1st and 2d brigades in advance) the order to advance was given, with instructions to reach, take, and hold a hill some five hundred yards in front of the enemy's works. The whole line went briskly forward, and when we had reached an intervening crest about half way we became entirely exposed to view.
