Description: "Skirmishing in the woods, on the advance to Vicksburg. Our artist presents a most beautiful scene, could we but forget the deadly nature of it. A party of skirmishers, thrown in front in the almost impenetrable forest, came suddenly upon a similar party of the enemy, and the woods soon rang with the sharp report of the rifle, sending death to each other, and announcing to the main bodies that the struggle had begun."— Frank Leslie, 1896
