JNO. BUFORD,

Brigadier-General of Volunteers.


HEADQUARTERS FIRST CAVALRY DIVISION,
August 29, 1863.

RAPPAHANNOCK, August 1, 1863.

I sent a brigade to cross this morning at Beverly Ford; the river is swimming, and I could not cross. The engineers give me no cooperation. I cant cross in boats and drive away the rebels, after which, in the engineers are instructed to lay a brigade, I can cross and hold the opposite bank. If I am cross and hold the opposite bank. If I am to advance, I would like to see some disposition shown to aid me. Everything seems to be awaiting orders.

JNO. BUFORD,

Brigadier-General.

Major-General MEADE.

[Indorsement]

1863.

EAR WARREN: I suppose the brigade at Rappahanock Station will be thrown over as soon as the enemy is cleared away.

A. A. H. [HUMPHREYS.]

RAPPAHANNOCK STATION, August 1, 1863.

Have been driving Jones' and Hampton's brigades of cavalry all day. Have arrived within 1. 1/2 miles of Culpeper. Have found A. P. Hill's corps, and have to come back. I can't fight so many. There is no one else at Culpeper.

JNO. BUFORD,

Brigadier-General of Volunteers.

Major-General MEADE,

Headquarters Army of the Potomac.
