Shows the U.S. Mine Ford. Also shows three pontoon bridges over the Rappahannock River, various Confederate batteries and rifle pits, hospital locations, and the location of Fitzhugh House. References to a skirmish on a Sunday night and a shelling on Monday morning probably refer to 26-27 April 1863 (but it possibly could be 3-4 May 1863). A note on back identifies the creator as "A Clark Bunn/Burn/Bun 50th N.Y.V. Eng." There are photographs of this regiment and its work in GLC05111.
