Kilpatrick (search for this): article 1
The raid around Richmond — Capture of parties of the enemy — the fighting on the Brook road and on Green's Farm. Since our yesterday's issue, some additional particulars have reached us of the operations of the enemy on Tuesday. Kilpatrick's division, marching by the mountain road from Louisa, reached the Brook about 9 o'clock A. M., and quartered upon Mrs. Hillyard's farm. They sent forward a detachment with eight pieces of cannon along the Brook road to the vicinity of Battery No. 9, aved down in the direction of Mechanicville. It is to be hoped that this party will fall into the hands of some of our forces in that direction. The latest — the enemy Crosses the Pamunkey. The latest information we have represents that Kilpatrick's column of the raiders crossed the Pamunkey river at Piping Tree Ferry about the middle of the day yesterday. The other column, under Gregg, later in the day, were confronted in the neighborhood of Old Church with Col. Bradley T. Johnson's fo<
Adjutant, the number of this division of the enemy amounted to 3,400 men. The same officer reported that there were no casualties on their side during the artillery duel. Our informant also gathered from the same officer that the command of Colonel Gregg, which approached Richmond through Goochland, numbered 3,600, making the aggregate of the two divisions 7,000 men. Among other citizens captured by them was Mr. John B. Young, of Henrico, who is understood to have been taken by a detachment n The latest — the enemy Crosses the Pamunkey. The latest information we have represents that Kilpatrick's column of the raiders crossed the Pamunkey river at Piping Tree Ferry about the middle of the day yesterday. The other column, under Gregg, later in the day, were confronted in the neighborhood of Old Church with Col. Bradley T. Johnson's force of Marylanders; but by sheer weight of numbers they forced their way through, and followed on after the column that had preceded them. They
on along the Brook road to the vicinity of Battery No. 9, and formed a line of battle on Mrs. Taylor's farm, about one mile and a quarter from the battery. The line was formed of cannon, supported by dismounted sharpshooters. The latter approached during the artillery duel which ensued to within 175 yards of the battery, being shielded by Col. J. A. Parker's house, near the turnpike From this point they succeeded in killing one and wounding three of our men, belonging to the command of Col. Stephens, at the battery. They were finally driven off by a charge of a body of our men, led by Col. James Howard. After the artillery duel had terminated, about 4 o'clock P. M. the whole body retreated in the direction of the Meadow Bridge road — moving with considerable haste — passing by Mr. Grant's and Mrs. Gooch's, and crossing the Chickahominy at the Meadow Bridge, six miles from Richmond. At night they encamped on Mrs. Eliza Crenshaw's farm, about a mile beyond the Bridges, and two
nd instantly killed. Of the Armory battalion Lieuts. Sweeny and Blunt were killed, and Lieut. Docker wounded. Mr. Butts, of the same battalion, was so badly wounded that he has since died. The prisoners. During night before last and yesterday squads of prisoners were brought in, captured at various points along the line. The number that had reached the Libby up to 7 o'clock last night was about 140, of whom there were but three officers. These were Lt.-Col. Litchfield and Capt. Clarke, of the 7th Michigan cavalry, and Surgeon Kingston, of the 2d N. Y. cavalry. The prisoners captured represent twelve different regiments, but tell very conflicting stores about their numbers engaged in the raid; but all concur in the statement that it was designed for the liberation of the prisoners now in our hands. A sergeant who was brought in on Tuesday night, had in his haversack two silver teaspoons and a silver fork, on which are engraved the initials "J. M. M." This fellow had a
etachment near Ashland. At last accounts he had not been released. The approach of the column by the Westham road. Whilst the operations above mentioned were going on the Brook turnpike, the column of the enemy which went into Goochland county were ascertained to be approaching the city by the Westham Plankroad. A portion of the city troops, consisting of the Armory battalion, Major Ford commanding, the Department battalion, Capt. McIlhany commanding, and another battalion under Maj. Waller, were sent out to check their progress and arrest their march. Of these forces, the Armory in advance, and came up with the enemy's pickets about 4 o'clock, which they drove in with little resistance. Pushing on, until they arrived at the place of Mr. Ben. Green, they came up with the enemy's main body, who were dismounted and in line of battle to receive them. Before the battalion was fully aware of the proximity of the enemy, or the numbers they were confronting, a fire was opened u
