Headquarters Army PotowAsc April 1 describes the army of the Potomac achieving its most important Virginia victory to date. The outer works have fallen and most of the army rests within a mile and a half of the city on the southwest side. The enemy fought fiercely to hold the lines, but success is attributed to both command strategy and the overwhelming numbers and bravery of our troops.
