The new pickets which took up the ground on the morning of the battle were, half of them, given by the 55th Regiment, and the other half (as on the 4:th of November) by Adams's three regiments. The pickets of the First Brigade were on the right, and those of the Second Brigade (with the exception of the ' hay picket'), on the left.
