Benjamnin F. Butler, Butler's Book: Autobiography and Personal Reminiscences of Major-General Benjamin Butler, Chapter 11: military operations. (search)
October. To show the accuracy and reliability of my secret service system, I give the report of General Williams on the 2d of August:-- headquarters Second brigade, Baton Rouge, La., August 2, 1862. John Mahan [Mann?] with a pass from General Butler, dated July 22, for Vicksburg, and who left New Orleans July 25, and arrived at Pontchatoula and Camp Moore Monday, July 28, having proceeded up the Jackson railroad as far as Jackson, arrived here by the way of Summit, Liberty, and Bayou Sara this morning at 10 o'clock. He says he saw Breckinridge's force of six full regiments and fourteen guns at Camp Moore and Pontchatoula Monday, July 28, and that their purpose is to attack this place; says they may be expected on the rear of Baton Rouge at this time, or at any time in the next day or two. If Mahan be a true man and a true observer there is to be an attack here or at New Orleans; if at New Orleans, a demonstration here. Respectfully, your obedient servant, T. Williams
