To General O. B. Wilcox
Com'dg 9th army corps
General--
Your dispatch of
10.15 P.M. is rec'd--It
would be well for you to push
a brigade of infantry to
this point to hold for the
pursuit, with orders to assist
me if I should need it--
I shall move at 8.a.m.
towards Thornton's Gap to cut
off all the rebels I can-
My position tonight
will at New-by's crossroads.
Until the bridge is rebuilt
coming this way must cross
at Gaskin Mills--Please
communicate this to General
Burnside & oblige, Yours
A. Pleasonton
