midnight
All at once there came the noise of a gun , and another , and of a whole battery , and many batteries , and fields and woods were alive with shells and canister . More than forty pieces of cannon had been massed in our front . We lay and endured the fire . General Hill was wounded , and at midnight General Stuart of the cavalry took command of the corps . At last the cannon hushed . The terrible night passed away without sleep . At eight o'clock on Sunday morning the Light Division , under command of General Pender , assaulted the intrenchments of the enemy .
