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

November 6 — Renewed our march this morning with Rosser’s brigade. We crossed the Hazel, passed through Amissville, a small village on the Sperryville and Warrenton road, and arrived late this evening at Gaines’ Cross Roads, in Rappahannock County, about fifteen miles east of Front Royal.

We are camped one mile west of Gaines’ Cross Roads, in one of General Rosser’s old camps.
