The Daily Dispatch: May 20, 1863., [Electronic resource], Affairs in Mississippi. (search)
atch is not so cheering as we could desire, we can see nothing in it to encourage the belief that Vicksburg is more endangered than before, or that its fall must result from the partial defeat of our forces after nine hours severe fighting. Edwards's Depot, where the battle took place, is understood to be a station on the Vicksburg and Jackson Railroad, between the Big Black river and the city of Jackson. To engage the enemy our forces had to leave their strong positions around Vicksburg, anduntry will feel measurably relieved when it is generally known that he is to command in person at so important a point. The following is a copy of the dispatch of Gen. Johnston: Camp Between Livingston and Brownsville, May 18, 1863. Gen. S. Cooper: Lieutenant General Pemberton was attacked by the enemy on the morning of the 15th inst., near Edwards's Depot, and, after nine hours fighting, was compelled to fall back behind Big Black. J. E. Johnston, General Commanding.
