The Daily Dispatch: June 20, 1862., [Electronic resource], From the North (search)
From the North The Northern papers, of the 16th inst., contain no news of public interest from any direction. We make up the following summary from the Yankee reports of war movements and other matters: From M'Dowell's Division. Fredericksburg June 13. --Considerable excitement was occasioned yesterday by the report that the rebels were advancing upon this city and had driven in our pickets. It was found that the alarm originated in a party of depredators being fired upon by a farmer. the enemy's line of pickets is eighteen miles distant, and was driven in by our cavalry yesterday. A day or two since Major Lacy, Aid de-Camp to the rebel General Smith and owner of the estate occupied by General McDowell for headquarters, came up within a few mites of Fredericksburg and sent in for his wife. Suspicious ware aroused by her departure, and a scouting party was sent upon her track, resulting in the capture of Lacy. He now professes great anxiety to be paroled.
