The Daily Dispatch: November 9, 1863., [Electronic resource], Advance of the enemy in force-fight near Brandy. (search)
Advance of the enemy in force-fight near Brandy.
On Saturday Gen. Meade commenced an advance in force.
About 12 o'clock our force, variously stated at from two to four brigades, stationed beyond Brandy Station, was attacked by an overwhelming force of the enemy and a desperate fight ensued.
It is certain that Haye's (Louisiana) and Hoke's (North Carolina) brigades constituted a portion, if not all, of our force.
After a hot fight nearly all of these brigades, except, it is said, about 600, were captured by the enemy, who had managed to surround them.--The force of the Yankees was estimated at from 10,000 to 15,000.
They also crossed in force at Kelley's Ford.
We lost four pieces of artillery.
We have a report by the Central cars that Gen. Hoke was severely wounded.

From North Carolina. Goldsboro', Nov. 7.
--President Davis arrived here to-day at 11 A. M., and was enthusiastically received by citizens and soldiers.
Being called for, he made a few remarks from the platform of the car. He said North Carolina had nobly done her duty from the battle of Bethel to Chickamauga, and would do her duty in future, and that grumblers who sat around their firesides, finding fault with soldiers, thus dampening their ardor, would be remembered hereafter.
