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

April 26 — Moved camp to-day from the South Fork to the Petersburg grade, and are now camped about a mile southwest of Moorefield. I saw about eighty Yankee prisoners who had been captured by our cavalry yesterday in a fight at Greenland Gap, at the foot of the Alleghany Mountain. I saw also Colonel Dulaney, of the Seventh Cavalry. He was wounded in the arm yesterday at the Greenland Gap fight.
