C-44: First Battle of Manassas

On Matthew's Hill, just to the north, the Confederates repulsed the attack of the Unionists, coming from the north, in the forenoon of July 21, 1861. The Union forces, reinforced, drove the Confederates to Henry Hill, just to the south. There, the latter reformed under the cover of Stonewall Jackson. In the afternoon, McDowell vainly attempted to rally his troops on Matthew's Hill after they had been driven down the Henry Hill.
