Union Reconnaissance Crosses Rapidan At Orange Court House

A Union reconnoitering column under Crawford crossed the Rapidan and seized Orange Court House from two Confederate regiments of cavalry. The advance pushed back toward Patersonsburg within 12 miles. At Coxs Mills near the river the 13th Virginia Cavalry attacked. Union forces routed them, driving to Sycamore Church encampment and burning tents and stores. Rebels left two horses killed, six men wounded, two prisoners. Union loss one horse. Messages indicate Merimac guns ready for three weeks, two gunboats shelling City Point’s opposite shore.
