Wednesday night, June 11, 1862
Everything quiet to-day. No news from the en-
emy, except that Capt. Lilly was not hurt, one
member of the West Augusta Guard (Doom) killed, +
one (Byan) wounded. A rumor this afternoon that
the Yankees were coming this way, crossing North
River at Mt. Crawford; and another that Fremont
was retreating. From 9000 to 11000 reinforcements
are on the way to Jackson. Two Federal soldiers,
caught near Dayton, were brought in this evening
A marriage to-night in our church — Jewel to a
Miss Risk — a large crowd present.
