"The war in Virginia. Battery on the left of the enemy's line, in front of Petersburg, captured by the Eighteenth Army corps. The Confederate works on the left are shown in our sketch. These were carried after a desperate fight. Duncan bears the glory of the achievement. This battery taken gave a view of Petersburg and its spires. Our correspondent said: 'The suddenness and celerity of Grant's movements baffle all calculations. Fertile in resources, untiring, persistent to the obstinacy, his movements are seldom anticipated or met. Yet here, in the struggle at Petersburg he found no loophole. His splendid transfer of his army to the south of the James seemed to lay Petersburg at his feet, but he found himself met by all the scientific resources of modern engineering.'"— Frank Leslie, 1896
