Second Kernstown, Virginia, also known as Kernstown or Winchester. During the morning, Confederate cavalry encountered its Union counterpart south of Kernstown and heavy skirmishing broke out. Couriers alerted Union Brigadier-General George Crook to their presence, but Crook still believed that Confederate Lieutenant-General Jubal Anderson Early’s infantry had left the Shenandoah Valley. He sent only two of his infantry divisions with cavalry support to meet the anticipated attack. The infantry of both armies had arrived on the field by early afternoon.
The Confederate position extended well to each side of the Valley Turnpike south of Kernstown, anchored strongly on each flank on high ground and screened by cavalry. Major-General John Brown Gordon’s division formed the Confederate centre across the Valley Turnpike. Major-General Stephen Dodson Ramseur’s division formed on his left with its flank resting on Sandy Ridge to the west of Kernstown, screened by Colonel William Lowther Jackson’s cavalry. Brigadier-General Gabriel Colvin Wharton’s division, currently led by Major-General John Cabell Breckinridge, formed the Confederate right, with its flank screened by Brigadier-General John Crawford Vaughn’s cavalry. Early initially concealed his infantry in the woods, sending out his cavalry and a skirmish line of sharpshooters to draw the Union forces into battle. This ploy strengthened Crook’s misconception that the Confederate infantry had left the Valley.
The Union infantry position remained clustered around the Valley Pike in Kernstown, anchored by Colonel James A Mulligan’s 3^rd Division on Pritchard’s Hill, one of the keys to the position. To his right, Colonel Joseph Thoburn’s brigade formed on Sandy Ridge. To his left, Brigadier-General Rutherford Birchard Hayes’ brigade formed to the east of the Valley turnpike. Crook dispatched cavalry under Brigadier-General William Woods Averell to ride around the Confederate right flank and to strike its rear.
It soon became apparent to the Union divisional commanders that they were facing a superior Confederate force. They were hesitant to attack and relayed the information to Crook. Crook grew impatient with the failure of his divisional commanders to attack the Confederate position and mistrusted their reports of superior Confederate numbers. He ordered Mulligan to attack the Confederates immediately, with Hayes division in support. At 1 pm the Union infantry moved out, leaving Pritchard’s Hill undefended. Mulligan’s division was halted by Gordon’s men at Opequon Church. Thoburn was supposed to support Mulligan’s right flank in the attack but the topography of the battlefield separated him from Mulligan and his troops saw little action. As Hayes’ brigade advanced in support, Breckinridge marched Wharton’s division to the northeast into a deep ravine that ran perpendicular to the Valley Turnpike. He turned the division into the ravine, which screened his movement from the Union forces on the turnpike. As Hayes came up the road past the ravine, Breckinridge ordered a charge which struck Hayes’ exposed flank. Hayes’ division broke into retreat, losing many casualties. Gordon’s Confederates exploited the gap in the Union line to advance onto Mulligan’s right flank after Hayes’ division broke. Mulligan found his command caught between two Confederate divisions. Mulligan immediately ordered a withdrawal and was mortally wounded as he tried to rally his wavering troops. More Union infantry arrived at about 9 pm to stabilise the defence but the defeat was already complete.
The Confederate infantry pressed the fleeing Union forces through Winchester and beyond, while the cavalry pursued others into West Virginia. Averell’s cavalry had attempted to flank the Confederates as ordered but ran headlong into Vaughn’s cavalry on the Front Royal Pike. The shock of the unexpected Confederate cavalry attack sent the Union cavalry racing towards Martinsburg. When the fleeing cavalry encountered the retreating wagon and artillery trains north of Winchester it incited panic among the Union teamsters, causing many to abandon their charges as they got caught up in retreat. Many of the wagons had to be burned to prevent them from falling into Confederate hands. Early’s forces wrecked the railroad facilities at Martinsburg. As night fell the Confederate cavalry swept the countryside looking for scattered Union troops. Many of the Union survivors spent the night out in the rain trying to evade capture. Crook continued his retreat to Williamsport, where he eventually rallied his command, repelled the pursuit, and crossed the Potomac River into Maryland.
Union casualties were estimated as 1,185 to 1,200 (479 captured) and Confederate casualties were estimated as 600. Some Confederate prisoners taken at Stephenson’s Depot on 20^th July, including Brigadier-General Robert Doak Lilley, were liberated by Early’s men. (CWSAC Major Battle – Confederate Victory)
