The message reads:
746. A Canvas Pontton Bridge
This is the point on the North Anna River near Jericho Mills where the Fifth Corps crosssed in May, 1864. On this side of the river is seen the pontoon wagons, and the stacked muskets of some of the troops. On the other side the troops are in bivouac under the trees, making coffee. The stacks of muskets, the soldiers laying on the ground, the smoke from the various little bivouac fires, combine the "past rise before us like a dream."
