Gen. Mcclellan, at Buchanan, with his
other two brigades, was west of it. The
9TH of July, Morris was directed to adj

mile and half of Garnett's camp at Lau-

the enemy the impression that the main at

Clellan. with the brigades of Rosecrans
and Scheich, moved eastward from Buch-

within two miles of Pegram's position at
Rich Mountain. Having reconnoitered it,
