Prince William (Virginia, United States) (search for this): article 10
The Exploit of Stuart's cavalry.Another Federal account. A letter in the Philadelphia Press, dated White House, June 14, gives the fullest Yankee version that we have yet seen of the recent cavalry reconnaissance in the rear of McClellan's army. After staling that the daring "rebels" crossed the Pamunkey "from Prince William county to Garlick's Landing" four miles above the White House, where they burned the vessels and captured and destroyed other property, the writer proceeds: The precise knowledge which the rebels possess of the character of the roads and situation of the country must have been of great service to them on this occasion, and so adroitly did they avail themselves of this knowledge, that before any one here was aware of the fact, they had proceeded as far up the railroad as Tunstall's Station, some five miles from this place. About the time the rebels arrived at Tunstall's Station, one of the trains happened, unfortunately, to be on its way down to Whi

and consternation spread throughout the departments stationed here. This was entirely owing to the fact that everybody was ignorant of the numbers and force of the rebels, and their fears at once magnified a few hundred cavalry into the entire rebel army, which they alleged had left Richmond and come around to cut off McClellan in the rear. Another unfortunate circumstance here was the very small number of effective troops at this place, and, under an impression of immediate attack, Col. Ingalls, in command here, mustered whatever there was to muster, and, in addition, armed all the laborers and civilians to be found. In connection with a few cavalry, these were formed in line of battle to receive the rebels. In the meantime, the various steamboats schooners, &c., at this point, prepared to drop down the Pamunkey. The mail boat from Fort Monroe had just arrived; the mails which she had brought, together with those remaining in the post-office, and other Government documents an

o serve as a guard of protection to the train. The men had generally retired to rest for the night, but were soon aroused, put under arms, and marched down the road to where the train had stopped. After giving a partial list of the casualties resulting from this "wonderful raid of guerrillas," the writer adds: Early next morning after the occurrence, regiments of infantry were thrown along both sides of the railroad to act as a guard, while several companies of cavalry were dispatched on scouting expeditious through the woods and surrounding country. Every effort was made by our men, who were enraged beyond measure, to capture the daring and desperate rebels. They have succeeded in capturing six of the rebels; among them are Capt. Garlick, whose father lives at the landing where the rebels crossed the river, and Dr. Harrison, a rampant secesh, who lives near this place, and whose property has been constantly guarded by Union soldiers since this place fell into our hands.

out 12 o'clock midnight, and we were in a very uncertain, and for aught we knew a critical position. The rebels were known to be scattered over the country in different directions, but in what numbers we not any other person seemed to know anything about. It was uncertain what minute they might appear upon the brow of the hill near which we stopped, and fire upon our train as they did on the one preceding us. Accordingly, a few persons started to bring down the Fifty-second Pennsylvania, Col. Dodge, which was known to be in the vicinity, to serve as a guard of protection to the train. The men had generally retired to rest for the night, but were soon aroused, put under arms, and marched down the road to where the train had stopped.
