It was especially noticeable in the first day's struggle, and it did not cease nor wane until the last dread encounter had been met and the battle won. Old John Burns shouldering his musket, going to the field, and never yielding until shot through and through by the enemy's bullets, is but a type of the personal interest in the issue which pervaded that army.
