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

May 30 — We remained in camp yesterday, but this morning we were ordered back to Winchester. We stopped to camp four miles below town, but we heard that the Yankees were advancing on Winchester from the direction of Front Royal, and we were ordered to that road immediately. We remained all night where the Front Royal road enters Winchester.
