4th Virginia Infantry, at the first battle of Manassas, July 18, 1861. The original Rebel yell. With Prefatory note by U. S. Senator, J. W. Daniel. by J. B. Caddall. Editor of The Times-Dispatch. Sir,—In forming his line of battle at first Manassas Jackson placed the 4th Virginia Infantry, under Colonel James F. eft oblique, an order to press the left flank of our artillery, which was between our infantry and Pickett's and Griffin's guns, which were to be charged. Mr. J. B. Caddall, of Pulaski, was then in the 4th Virginia, and he gives an account, afterwards endorsed, with some interesting incidents of this regiment.

During his devotions he would tell the Lord that he had been all through Mexico, but he had never seen anything half so bad as that; just then another shell would whistle over in very close proximity, when with the greatest earnestness he would exclaim: Oh, Lord, have mercy on me!

Caddall, Co. C, 4th Va. Infantry.
