Mosby captures Fairfax in bold dawn raid on Stoughton
The 1863 Fairfax raid led by Mosby and his 107 scouts overran the town in a dawn assault. Stoughton slept through the intrusion as Mosby demanded the general accompany him. Antonia Ford, a Fairfax confidante, was later detained in D.C. while Mosby escaped with horses and dispatches before release.
