Abraham Lincoln - The Papers And Writings Of Abraham Lincoln-VOL. VI (Chap. 2.305) lyrics

Telegram To General W. S. Rosecrans. War Department, October 19, 1863.9. A.M. MAJOR-GENERAL ROSECRANS, Chattanooga, Tenn: There has been no battle recently at Bull Run. I suppose what you have heard a rumor of was not a general battle, but an "affair" at Bristow Station on the railroad, a few miles beyond Mana**as Junction toward the Rappahannock, on Wednesday, the 14th. It began by an attack of the enemy upon General Warren, and ended in the enemy being repulsed with a loss of four cannon and from four to seven hundred prisoners. A. LINCOLN.
