The Daily Dispatch: November 11, 1861., [Electronic resource], From Kentucky and Missouri. (search)
From Kentucky and Missouri. the fight at Rockcastle — the Confederates Fall back to Cumberland Gap --a skirmish near Brownsville — a Sharp Rebuke,&c. From our exchanges we compile the following in relation to the progress of the war in Kentucky. The telegraph having kept us pretty well posted in regard to skirmishes &c., in that State, it is a hard matter to find anything which has not been before noticed: The Rockcastle fight — reports as to the movements of the enemy.ome out and fight us. In the skirmish we had with them, about 11 of our men were killed, and about 60 of theirs. It is also said that they killed about 400 of their own men. The enemy is reported to be in pursuit of us, and we will go to Cumberland Gap in a day or two, and there we will take our stand and not allow even the devil to whip us.

Cumberland Gap, we believe, is well fortified, and can be defended against any force that can be brought against it. The other gaps, however, seem to have been neglected, and yesterday we had rumors that a large Lincoln force was approaching Jamestown, Sentries county, and that McClellan's Cavalry Battalion had fallen back from that point. If they make their entrance there, it is probable their aim will be the bridge at Loudon, the destruction of which would be a most calamitous blow to us. Rock
