A Dismal Death-Knell: Major General Rodes ordered his division to assail the link between the Union 1st Corps and 11th Corps on July 1. Rodes’ lead brigades suffered heavy casualties, with a veteran of Iverson’s Brigade mourning the “orphan children” caused by the attacks. Ramseur’s regiments had to add their weight to break the Federal line. (Courtesy Museum Quality Americana)
