Winchester. General Early commanded the foremost brigade of this division, and was therefore the first of all the enemy's infantry to encounter our cavalry under Bayard. In the morning, at eleven o'clock, the enemy's artillery opened on our cavalry, before Roberts had crossed Cedar Creek with infantry; but Knapp's battery replied, and the enemy withdrew. After the main body of our infantry had crossed the creek and taken up the line designated, Bayard formed his line on a ridge in the plain that held the cornfield, and about two-thirds of a mile in advance of the infantry. In this position hetreceived for a time the enemy's fire from his field-guns, an until he came in sight of the ridge, where, formed in daring array, he saw the fearless Bayard.

It is apparent, however, that this order does not justify Banks directly or inferentially; for on the 8th Jackson's army was not at Cedar Mountain; on the 8th Banks had not gone to the front with orders to hold a position and be reinforced if attacked, nor had Roberts, as Pope's chief-of-staff, imparted to Banks the instructions given to him on the 9th. That Crawford, who says he was to resist the approach of the enemy on the 8th, should think and urge that Banks was therefore j
