Th* two armie* were confronting each other at that place in 1362. McClel lan decided to quietly withdraw his troops and approach Richmond from another direction, namely, byway of the James river. The Confederates, however leaifaed of the movement, and after mounting a number of logs of wood painted to resemble cannon they quietly decamped to meet the Feder al advance from the other direction. The Federal* did oot learn that they had gone until a portion of their army made an xasault upon tba Confederate batteries, and, much to their disgust, captured only the Quaker cannon.
