Wednesday, May 11. — Quiet most of the day except skirmishing. All the troops were withdrawn from the heights beyond Nye River, at 8.30 P.M., and moved to the rear, to connect with the Army of the Potomac. We immediately moved back again into our old position without any opposition. We were ordered to move at 4 A.M. against the enemy. Rained in the afternoon. Tom Stevenson’s body was sent home to-day. John Jones went with it. It made me feel blue enough to lose such a fellow as he was.
