May 25th - Princeton Still in Federal Hands

They came. They saw. They turned around and left.  Confederate cavalry near Princeton spent the night of May 24th just beyond Federal lines on Bent Tree Hill and at Princeton Mills. First thing in the morning, they mounted up and left; one back towards Cache Marsa and the other towards Holly Springs.  Princeton remains firmly in Federal hands and the Confederate cavalry did not enter or come close to the town itself. No shots were fired during the face off at Princeton.
