In all this skirmishing and picket fighting it is difficult to say what has been the damage done our foes; but it is well known that our loss has been very small, while they have had several killed and over thirty taken prisoners.

Friday evening and night our small forces was in position, anticipating that the main body would attach us and endeavor to gain possession of Winchester; but they felled to do so and fell back some distance from the advance they had succeeded in gaining in the morning. Saturday, our cavalry still annoyed them all day, and on Sunday a small detachment of fifteen rode up to within two hundred yards of the encampment on the Martinsburg road, captured one and killed another, both of whom belonged to the 18th Indiana regiment.
