To Brig Genl Gregg

            Comdg 2^d Cavly Div.

               I sent directions to you by Lt. Col. Chamberlain 1^st Mass Cavly to fall back to Charles City Court House on the same road that you went out on. If you have not received this dispatch fall back on that road, or on the road which Col. Chamberlain came here on. I have gone into camp here, am awaiting information from City Point.

 

            The enemy in this front have dis-appeared gone down the Coal Harbor road in your direction, they were few in number. If you come on the road Col Chamberlain came on you will send (2) two regiments on the road to Charles City C. House to go on picket there

 

Very Resply
