Keyes sent three regiments up James river to land on the Chickahominy, and thus draw Wise's attention to his right, while Gordon's division was to go up and attack him in front. When Gordon's advance reached the Twelve mile ordinary he sent forward a regiment of infantry, two squadrons of cavalry and a section of artillery, under Col.
