in Richmond. Remaining in camp there for a short time, it
was next ordered to the Potomac to form part of the com-
mand of General Theophilus H. Holmes, and was first sta-
tioned at Brook’s Station near Acquia Creek. Soon, how-
ever, it marched to Evansport, a point on the Potomac river,
the present Quantico Station, between the Chappewamsic
and Quantico creeks, where batteries of heavy guns were to
be established to blockade the Potomac below Washington.
Going into camp at this place late in September, the regi-
ment was stationed there during the Autumn and winter of
1861-62, on duty in the erection and support of the batteries
which were in great part constructed by details of its men.
There were three of these batteries at first, mounted with
9-inch Dalghren guns, smooth bore 32 and 42 pounders, and
one heavy rifled Blakely gun, and they were thought to be
formidable in those days. No. 2 Battery was in part manned
by Company I, of the regiment, detailed for that purpose,
where it continued to serve as long as the post was occupied.
After the batteries opened, traffic by water to Washington
ceased almost entirely, but the river there being about two
miles wide,some craft succeeded in running the gauntlet from
time to time, among others: the steam sloop of war Pensacola,
which passed at night.
