The Daily Dispatch: January 9, 1863., [Electronic resource], Gen. Stuart's recent reconnaissance. (search)
ds that a Yankee would hardly travel on foot, and just about day came up to a beautiful farm, which is said to have belonged to a Yankee, and which contained plenty of food for our horses, and then we went into the confiscating business in earnest. After refreshing ourselves we moved on towards a village called Aldle, smile beyond which we encamped. The inhabitants were delighted to see us — previsions were freely distributed; water was setting out in buckets for us as we passed. The ladies said they could hardly realize the fact that the rebels were again among them. At a town called Middleburg, Confederate colors were to be seen everywhere. Cheers for Jeff, Davis, Stuart's cavalry, etc., were given by the young ladies with a hearty will. At Warrenton the same enthusiasm was displayed. All seemed joyous — all was gay. After a fatiguing trip of ten days we returned to camp, and are now resting our jaded steeds and recruiting ourselves. J. S. H, of 10th Va. ca
