| Kearny and Hooker's presence revealed at Sharpeville - the only 'A' grade infantry leaders the Union possess in this campaign |
10:00 am - I hadn't intended to post every turn, but this has turned out to be gripping stuff and things are coming to a head - Robertson's cavalry has located Heintzelman's entire corps at Sharpeville, this being the III Corps of the Army of the Potomac (on attachment to Pope).
Jackson continues to advance towards the town from the east, maintaining Ewell and A.P. Hill in cautious line of battle with Starke in reserve. Longstreet's leading elements have left the turnpike to move across country and take up position on Jackson's left. Wherever Pope's army has been for the last few hours it is almost certainly now concentrating at Sharpeville and battle is likely to be joined very soon . . .
