ImDoden,s Raid into Fue Ser county

RowLEsBURG, August 20, 1861.
MeSsEs. Editors: Having seen in the
Wheeling papers several imperfect accounts
ofImbodeus receutraid into Tucker county,
L will, for the information of Your numer-
ous readers, eudeavor to give you the facts
as gathered from reliable sources as we'll
as personal observation.
For ahout two months past Capt. hall
and 80 of his men, of this place have been
stationed at Abraham Parsons on Cheat
river, 10 miles above st. George.
On Monday evening the 18th inst, a
young lady, l9 years of age by the name of
Mary Jane Snyder daughter of John Sny-
der) got the information that Imboden,
with 500 gueriilas, had camped the night
before above her fntber's She that night
made up her mind to start the next morn
ing and give the Information to Captain
Hsll. Early in the morning she caught
horse, and alone, through the wilderness,
where she had never gene before, Travelled
twenty-five miles to Captain Halls Camp.
| Capt. Hall, after conversation With his
men, deemed it advisable to fall back to
Job Parsons, 1.-TWO miles(, aud at Z O'Clock,
T. NJ, struck his tents and moved down,
and four hours afterwards his deserted
camp was surrounded by these 800 cut
| throats, with three small pieces of cannon.
| The next morning from 10 TO 20 of them
on horseback presented themselves TO the
| view of Capt. Hail and men at his new camp
on the opposite side of the river, and about
| 700 Yards distant. Capt. Hall formed his
men in line and fred volIey upon this
band who immediately fled behiud some
1 old houses. Capt. Hall Immediately dis
matched a message to Rowlesburg to tele-
graph Gen. Kelley for reinforcements, and
| fell back to Adam n. Bowmsn's that night,
aud supposing the 500 guerrillas were fol-
| flowing him, he fell back to this place,
| where he arrived about noon on Thursday
| the Dist, and in the afternoon 400 soldiers
arrived from New Greek, with two pieces
of brass FOUNDERS and on the next day
Gen. Kelley with 400 more mon, two csis-
sons, baggage wagons, &C., arrived in our
| village. and the same evening all took up
| the line of march for Tucker county. The
night was dark, the roads bad aud muddy,
and they were only able to go eight miles
that night, and considering the roads, &C.,
done wonders at that. Early the next
Morning tbey agaia took up the line of
march for st. George. The same morning
YOUR humble servant accompanied by Mr.
John Hickman, of this place. proceeded to
follow. and arrived at ST. George just as
| Gen. Kelley and his forces had arrived
And, Messrs. Editors, know you would
have felt sorry to see the grief depicted In
the couutenance of the brave General, his
officers and men when they were informed
that their birds had flown.
l 1t turned out that on Thursday they fol-
flowed Capt. Hall and his men as far as st.
George, and by some means learned that
1000 troops were 70 be thars that night.
