laying still this morning I will try and write a few lines in answer. I know not
when this will reach you as it is reported that a large Cavalry force has gone
up the Valley in our rear. The Enimy have a large
Cavalry force in the Valley & our Cavalry being afraid of them
buts
us to a grate deal of trouble. We had to
march last night untill twelve oclock through mud & rain to meet an antisapated raid on Winchester. We are camped this morning near
Winchester & evry thing seems perfectly quiet.
It will hardly remain so untill night. | | Similar Items: | Find |
