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

April 6 — This morning one gun was ordered down the river to the cavalry picket post. The detachment started with the gun, but before it got to the post the order was countermanded and it returned to camp. The Yankees fell back toward Winchester to-day.
