Wilcox claims to have captured temporarily twenty guns and Wright eight.
As they approached the ridge a Union battery limbered up and galloped off.

The last gun was delayed and the cannoneer, with a long line of muskets pointing at him within a few feet, deliberately drove off the field.

The Georgians manifested their admiration for his bravery by crying out "Don't shoot," and not a musket was fired at him.* I regret that I have not been able to ascertain the man's name.
[* As it is well to verify these incidents, I desire to state that this is a reminiscence of Dr.J.Robie Wood, of New York, a Georgian, a relative of Wendell Phillips, who was in the charge with Wright.
Wood fell struck by six bullets, but recovered.] In the morning General Tidball, who was attached to the cavalry as Chief of Artillery, rode along the entire crest from Little Round Top to Culp's Hill to make himself familiar with the line.

As he passed by headquarters he noticed some new troops, the Second Vermont brigade under General Stannard, which formed part of my command.

They were a fine-looking body of men, and were drawn up in close column by division, ready to go to any part of the field at a moment's notice.
