On the morning of June 11, 1864, °ä³Ü²õ³Ù±ð°ù’s Michigan cavalrymen were picketing the Marquis Road when, at around 5:00 a.m., Confederate horsemen under Gen. Williams Wickham surprised the Yankees, many of whom were eating breakfast. Wickham’s Virginians drove the Federals up the Marquis Road capturing several of °ä³Ü²õ³Ù±ð°ù’s men. Ultimately, the Wolverines repulsed Wickham’s attack before being called away to another part of the field. However, the firefight marked the beginning of the largest all-cavalry battle of the Civil War.
