Three Years in the Confederate Horse Artillery — George Michael Neese.

September 3 — This morning we renewed our march, and were on the move nearly all day. We passed a great many troops, all marching toward the Potomac. We halted at Dranesville and remained there till nearly sunset, then moved one mile west of the village and camped. We crossed the Loudoun and Alexandria Railroad to-day.
