RIDGEVILLE, June 29, 1863.
Captain WEIR,
Assistant Adjutant-General:
I am at this point. I have sent one regiment to Cooksville, one to Lisbon, and one to Poplar Springs. I have not yet heard from the advanced regiment that was sent to Cooksville. It is reported that Stuart, with five brigades, was making for Cooksville. A rebel prisoner captured, and with whom I conversed this morning, says they were to encamp there (at Cooksville) last night. I have just heard that the telegraph wires are cut between here and Baltimore. A train of cars at Mount Airy are afraid to go through. I will push a few scouts down the railroad from Mount Airy to Sykesville, with instructions to go as far as possible. I think it would be advisable to push Gregg's brigade up here as rapidly as possible. I have established the patrol on the railroad from this place to Monocacy Bridge. There is a regiment of infantry here from Baltimore. This rebel prisoner states that a large wagon train and mules were captured at Rockville yesterday.
Respectfully, J. B. McINTOSH, Colonel, Commanding First and Second Brigades.” - War of the Rebellion: Serial 045 Page 0396 N. C., VA., W. VA., MD., PA., ETC. Chapter XXXIX.
