The Confederates are in rifle range now, and the Federal infantry opens fire

Firing along the Federal battleline now becomes general, as the Confederates begin to charge

       
 

Charging into heavy rifle and artillery fire, the Confederates begin to take casualties.  More Confederates prepare to charge in the background

 

The Confederate charge has nearly reached the ditch and Federal breastworks; casualties are becoming heavier
