The Daily Dispatch: November 15, 1864., [Electronic resource], article 1 (search)
t took place in and around Newtonia, in Newton county, between our forces, commanded by Major-General Blunt and Brigadier-General Sanborn, and the bulk of the rebel army. The rebels evidently supposed the pursuit had been given up, and they went innel Ford, of the Second Colorado, and Colonel Jannison, of the Fifteenth Kansas. General Curtis, with a reserve, and General Sanborn, with two more brigades, were some distance to the rear.--Blunt was with the advance, and was probably deceived as t our men were too short of ammunition to justify further pursuit. General Rosecrans had previously issued orders to General Sanborn to return after passing a certain point, and the next morning all the troops turned their faces northward, Sanborn gSanborn going to Springfield and Blunt to Fort Scott. General Cartis had halted at Carthage, and is now back at Fort Leavenworth. This ends the pursuit of the rebels. It was ascertained that Shelby had the chief command in this engagement. Doubtless.
