Chattanooga, Tenn. Oct. 19. 1863
There has been no battle recently at Bul-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 Manassas-Ju[n]ction towards the Rappahannock, on Wednesday the 14th. It began by an attack of the enemy upon Gen. Warren, and ended in the enemy being repulsed, with a loss of four cannon & from four to seven hundred prisoners. A. LINCOLN
