Specificatii
In June 1864, General Ulysses Grant ordered his cavalry commander,
Philip Sheridan, to conduct a raid to destroy the Virginia Central
Railroad between Charlottesville and Richmond. Sheridan fell short
of his objective when he was defeated by General Wade Hampton's
cavalry in a two-day battle at Trevilian Station. The first day's
fighting saw dismounted Yankees and Rebels engaged at close range
in dense forest. By day's end, Hampton had withdrawn to the west.
Advancing the next morning, Sheridan found Hampton dug in behind
hastily built fortifications and launched seven dismounted
assaults, each repulsed with heavy casualties. As darkness fell,
the Confederates counterattacked, driving the Union forces from the
field. Sheridan began his withdrawal that night, an ordeal for his
men, the Union wounded and Confederate prisoners brought off the
field and the hundreds of starved and exhausted horses that marked
his retreat, killed to prevent their falling into Confederate
hands.
