As fast as our troops retreated, their positions
we're occupied by the rebels till after Fairfax
Court House was passed, after which the pur-
suit was not continued. In many instances the
teamsters unhitched their horses and abandon
ed the wagons, when there was not the slightest
necessity. The rebel cavalry was the terror Of
the volunteers, who were compelled to keep the
woods to avoid being charged on by them.
