The Daily Dispatch: December 11, 1863., [Electronic resource], Ravages of the enemy when last this side of the Rapidan. (search)
Affairs in East Tennessee. Bristol, Dec. 10. --Our latest advices from the front are that General Longstreet's forces are in line of battle at Rutledge. His rear is skirmishing with the enemy, whose pursuit has not been vigorous since our forces left Morristown. Our cavalry were skirmishing all day on Monday with the advance of Wilcox's forces, on Clinch river. Capt. Everett's raiding party ventured to Abingdon yesterday. He attacked the enemy at Mt. Sterling, Ky., and routed them after a stubborn resistance, during which the courthouse and jail were burned. He captured a large number of fine horses and one hundred thousand dollars in greenbacks. The enemy being heavily reinforced, he retreated rapidly through Pound Gap, closely pursued by 1,200 cavalry, who are reported to be at Gladesville, Va.
