ATTERY B, Maryland Light Artillery, was organized at Baltimore and Pikesville, Md., in September and October, 1861, to serve three years.

Hunter's Army and took part in the battle of Piedmont, Va., June 5, 1864; from thence, with Hunter's Army, Battery B proceeded to Lynchburg, Va., on the James, and, upon the arrival of reinforcements from Lee's Army and the retirement of General Hunter's Army via the Kanawha Valley to the Ohio River, Battery B shared all the hardships incident to the retreat through the mountains of West Virginia.
