six in the morning
Night closed in and stopped again the play of death . Our forces were now in possession of sixteen pieces of artillery , with many officers and 1,200 prisoners , not including wounded . Our troops bivouacked on their line of battle in order to be ready for any movement in the morning . `` Ward 's Corps at six in the morning moved south from Nashua , striking the enemy and driving him some five miles , to Overton 's Hill , where he had thrown up works and was making a stand . Gen. Sleman now moved rapidly to Gen. Ward 's left . Scovens remained in his position of the last night . Wellston moved to the enemy 's rear and drew up his line across one of the Franktown roads .
