December 14, 1862---The Battle of Fredericksburg: Day Four



DECEMBER 14, 1862:        

The Battle of Fredericksburg (Day Four).           

The Union and Confederate troops remain facing each other at Fredericksburg but do not fight. In the afternoon, Burnside asks for a truce so he may recover his wounded. Lee graciously grants it, and the Union Army is soon engrossed in aiding its wounded and burying its dead.
