October 19, 1864-The battle of cedar creed, Virginia. In an early morning surprise attack, Jubal Early's Confederates successfully attack and drive troops
of the Army of the Shenandoah from their camps on the banks of Cedar Creek south of Middletown, Virginia. Hearing the fight from his headquarters at Winchester,
General Philip Sheridan rides southward, rallying dispirited troops who return to the battlefield. By day's end, Early's forces are put to flight. Despite several attempts
to disrupt the Union advance in the coming weeks, the battle for control of the Shenandoah Valley is over.
