North Carolina. Union Rear Admiral John Adolphus Bernard Dahlgren issued instructions to Captain Henry S Stellwagen, commanding USS Pawnee at Georgetown. Stellwagen was ordered to coordinate his naval operations and maintain communications with the northward advance of Major-General William Tecumseh Sherman’s armies. His primary objective was to facilitate communication with Sherman. The arrival of the USS Chenango and USS Sonoma was awaited to permit Stellwagen to move off. One of the replacement ships was to be stationed on the Santee River near the fort, and the other at the lighthouse. Three tugs, the Sweet Brier, Catalpa, and Clover, and a dispatch boat were also assigned to provide support.

Mount Crawford, Virginia. After crossing the North Fork of the Shenandoah River, Union Brigadier-General George Armstrong Custer’s cavalry division encountered about 300 Confederate cavalrymen under Brigadier-General Thomas Lafayette Rosser, guarding the Middle River near the village of Mount Crawford. Rosser set on fire a long bridge, hoping to delay the Union forces. Custer ordered two of his regiments to swim across the river and strike Rosser’s flank, while additional regiments stormed the bridge. Custer successfully drove off Rosser’s meagre force, extinguished the fire, and rode on to Staunton. The next day they were joined by the bulk of Union Major-General Philip Henry Sheridan’s force at Staunton.
