A Federal cavalry company at Lowell's Cross Roads held the town as Confederate infantry and artillery approached up the Potomac Turnpike from the direction of Higginsville. Piles of supplies captured by the Federals the previous day were burning at the edge of town. The Federal infantry and artillery that had been at Lowell's Cross Road the previous day and night were no where to be seen. The cavalrymen retreated towards Okonoko and Confederates moved into town.
