Mosby’s Rangers, the 43d Battalion, Virginia Cavalry, used this rock as a rendezvous point and met here to divide the spoils after raids. Laura Ratcliffe, a renowned Southern spy and scout who lived nearby, showed the rock to Colonel John S. Mosby, then a captain in the C.S.A., in 1863 and suggested that he use it as a meeting place.
