Description
Excerpt from The Battle of Williamsburg and the Charge of the 24th Virginia, of Early''s Brigade
The regiment served with increasing distinction from Manassas to Appomattox Courthouse. In the van at the former, it was also at the post of duty and honor at the latter, where its few ragged, battle scarred, limping survivors, heroes of a hundred victories, with hearts still as stout and courage as high as ever, with the writer, then their Colonel, laid down those bright muskets and gleaming bayonets which had been so eagerly seized just four years before to defend the rights and liberties of their dear Vir ginia, and with which so well had they done their devoir that even in submission the world admired and all brave hearts applauded their dauntless deeds.
