The Daily Dispatch: September 12, 1862., [Electronic resource], The Offensive resumed in North Carolina. (search)
had been reinforced the proceeding evening by several companies of cavalry, which, of course, operated strongly in their favor. One of the prisoners states that this reinforcement was made in consequence of information received of the meditated attack; while another states that it was preparatory to making a raid into the country on last Sunday. The latter, it is thought, was the true reason, inasmuch as the reinforcement consisted of cavalry; and, if so, it has been opportunely prevented by the attack. Capt. Booth, Co. C, 2d cavalry, fell mortally wounded, while gallantly leading his men in the hottest of the fight. On the same day that Gen. Martin took Washington, Col. Conoley, accompanied Major Nethercut in an expedition in the direction of Newbern. When within seven miles of the town they surprised and took a camp of sixteen negroes and two white men; also $700 in specie. Proceeding two miles further, (about five miles from Newbern,) they routed another camp of Yankees.
