U. S. Civil War
Twenty Seventh Regiment Infantry
As soon as the explosion, and the first division advanced Hartra'ts advance passed through our front line of pits in column of battalions at 5 A. M and three regiments occupied the left of the exploded work on the left flank of the 1st division, their ranks considerably broken up by the irregularity of the ground. The 1st divsion halting in the crater, soon closed up the way so that two regiments of Hartranft's brigade remained on the near slope of the rebel work, and two regiments halted in rear of our works, wait ing for space to move up. The distance between the two lines was about 140 yards.
