The Daily Dispatch: October 23, 1861., [Electronic resource], Bearer of dispatches. (search)
Bearer of dispatches. --A locomotive started from the York River Railroad depot yesterday morning about 4 o'clock, proceeded to West Point, and returned at half-pass 7, bringing a bearer of dispatches from Gen. Magruder, which related, probably, to the skirmish near Newport News on the day before.
The Daily Dispatch: October 23, 1861., [Electronic resource], The enemy in the Virginia Mountains. (search)
Affairs on the Peninsula. While there is every reason to apprehend the early occurrence of important events on the Peninsula, there has been nothing to contain the exciting report of a great battle in of Yorktown. Indeed, we have very and reliable advices from that immediate vicinity, which represent that not a gun has been fired, though there is unusual activity and military preparations. Nothing was known of the skirmish near Newport News on Monday, in which a portion of Gen. Laws's command was engaged; but the lost having been officially communicated by Gen. Magruder, there can be no doubt that something occurred in that locality, which promised to the inference of a general battle in the Peninsula.
