July 3 Advanced to the front about daybreak. Later in the morning took position on the crest of ridge west of Emmitsburg road and near the Rogers House. Drove back with a dozen well directed rounds a strong line of skirmishers whose fire wounded a few men and horses. Bore a conspicuous part in the cannonade preceding Longstreet's assault. But its ammunition being exhausted about the time of the assault began and repeated efforts to obtain a fresh supply proving fruitless the Battery was withdrawn.
