The Ninth Virginia cavalry, which was on picket, repulsed the enemy several times by vigorous charges, disputing the ground steder a severe fire of artillery, driving squadron after squadron, killing a number, wounding more, and capturing several. He was driven through Shepherdstown, and crossed the river after dark, in no case standing a hand-to-hand conflict, but relying upon his artillery and carbines at long-range for protection. I regret to add that we lost one lieutenant and several privates. I am, most respectfully, your obedient servant, R. E. Lee, General Commanding. Charles Marshall, Major and A. D.C.
