Image of the cemetery gatehouse taken on July 7, 1863. You can see water in front of the artillery lunettes ( Stewart's Battery, IIRC ) from the heavy rains on July 4th.
At first glance I thought, look at the mud, the wagon wheels were deep, and guy on left up to his knees. Now I see the road dips.
Great picture, Thanks.
Long age, when I first saw this picture, I was curious why the fence posts were stripped. After I gave it some thought I realized that the fence was probably whitewashed and the horizontal boards had been scavenged!
