Rebel Cavalry Movements At Rappahannock And Warrenton
The Washington Star reports a large rebel cavalry force likely crossed the Rappahannock near Kellys Ford after a raid near Stafford Court House. Some sources place Jubal Early at Warrenton, others say Jackson moved toward Strasburg. Union forces vow swift response. A picket cavalry detachment at Centreville on the Chantilly Road was nearly captured by roughly 100 rebels after two shots fired. General Sickles orders Washington’s Birthday celebration and a noon parade with a national salute, plus excerpts from Washington's Farewell Address stressing unity and constitutional fidelity.
