To avoid them, the enemy turned west from the turnpike, some miles below the bridge, and passed through a large body of woods, cutting a narrow wagon road under, then turned in a Southern direction through farm belonging to Mr Stuart Thornton, and passed the Bull Run immediately at a point known as Sudley Springs, and come out upon the turnpike about one and a half miles above the bridge, and passed the turnpike about two miles from the Sudley Springs — Immediately on crossing the turnpike, the country becomes undulating, and is principality what is called "old fields," with a few indifferent worm fences, and every now and then with clumps of pines and other small trees.
