were drawn up fronting the enemy in order of battle. During the formation, a fierce volley from the disguised Federals was poured into a portion of it. Still the command of Gen. Early was, 'Boys, don't fire, those men are your friends.' Capt. Thomas B. Massie, commanding the 'Washington Greys,' of Rappahannock county, observing the mistake of the commander, and unable to repress his momentary indignation, exclaimed, 'They may be your friends, but I'll bed — d if they are mine,' and ordered hisr the partial success of the miserable stratagem resorted to by the Yankees."

Massie, of the Virginia 7th, and asked if the visit was one of business or courtesy? They were informed that it was a visit of courtesy.
