The Daily Dispatch: May 2, 1863., [Electronic resource], From Fredericksburg. (search)
Hamilton's house, on the hill above. We hear rumors of crossing below Port Royal and of our army's falling back, &c. Only fifteen thousand Yankees are said to have come over, and they are concealed in a gorge immediately on the river, near Bernard's. Their pickets and skirmishers only appear above the bank. Our troops, up to last night, held the river road, three quarters of a mile from the river and parallel to it. The railroad was our second line, and numberless batteries and countlesspoint above Fredericksburg as the real routs of Hooker in his "On to Richmond" He has two roads out to Banks's ford, where Wilcox is ready to receive him. No Yankees yet reported in Fredericksburg. Barksdale's men are still there. The Yankees are preparing earthworks for guns near Pratt's. Their line extends from Bernard's to Alsop's, opposite Hamilton's Crossing. Our pickets and their's are scarcely 200 Yards apart. One of our shells yesterday scattered a party of officers near Pratt's.
