Caption: 130th Pennsylvania Advance toward the Sunken Road
Additional Description: From the Roulette Lane looking northwest. To the left is the Sunken Road. The 130th's monument can be seen between the trees along the lane. The shaft in the distance is the 14th Connecticut Infantry Monument. As Morris's Brigade advanced in line, the 14th was on the right of the 130th. The 130th's left flank dressed near the Roulette Lane. The 108th New York advanced on the other side of the lane, to the 130th's left. The regiments pressed toward the Confederate defensive position in the road bed, but was unable to reach the fence. Instead, the 130th held a position on the high ground to the right until relieved.
