American Civil War
SIXTEENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
Colonel Stockton says in his report:
" Our division to which the 1st, 4th, and 16th Michigan belong, marched from our present camps on the morning of the 11th, and remained bivouacked opposite Fredericksburg, with other corps until the afternoon of the 13th when the attack having been begun, we crossed the Rappahannock by brigades, the 3d being under my command, into the town,
and were drawn up at 4 P. M. in line of battle just in rear, exposed even then to the shells and rifles of the enemy,
