To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the afternoon, in compliance with orders, he sent his first division, under Caldwell, to the assistance of Sickles, who having advanced from the position assigned him, had become heavily en- gaged on our left. The movement of the Third Corps and the consequent detachment of Caldwell caused a large gap upon Hancock's left, compelling the utmost vigilance to prevent the enemy availing himself of the opportunity so afforded to penetrate our lines.
Sickles having been wounded, Hancock was direct...ed to assume command of the Third Corps in addition to his own, the increased responsibility demanding yet greater exertion to close the inter- vals that existed even after the Third Corps — ■ shattered by its gallant fight — had retired to, the line it was originally intended to occupy, and the two divisions of the First Corps sent in response to his request had come upon the line and assisted in 17 its re-establishment. The vigorous assaults upon the different portions of his enhanced command required his constant presence upon his line ; know- ing its weak points, quick to detect the approach of the eneniy in his efforts to possess them, Han- cock sent or led brigades or single regiments, as the case demanded, to the exposed positions to repel attack, or to cover the withdrawal of over- tasked troops.
