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

August 13 — We remained on outpost picket until late this evening, were relieved then by the second section, and we moved back to Brandy Station on reserve. It commenced raining last night at one o’clock and rained very fast until daylight, with just enough thunder and lightning mixed with it to make it interesting.
