January 7, 1864
---Col. John Taylor of the U.S. Cavalry commands a division
of cavalry in Warrenton, Virginia, and important town at the edge of Mosby’s
Confederacy. In the early morning dark,
Lieut. “Fighting Tom” Turner and a few dozen of Mosby’s troopers attack the
outer defenses of Warrenton, dashing into the camp and coming out with over 20
prisoners. Not one of the Rebel partisan
troopers was wounded, except with frostbite.
