telegraphic dispatch was received By
General Curtis at headquarters last eve
ming:
H'Da'Rs lsr DIVISION ARMY OF THE FRONTIER
CANE HILL, ARK. Dec. 6, 7P. NJ.
Major General Curtis: .
The enemy. twenty five thousand strong
yesterday attempted to force my position.
but their advance was driven back into
the mountains.
This morning they made an atta~k up.
on my outposts. upon two roals; on one
of them driving in my pickets about three
miles. Upon being reinforced they sgain
drove the enemy back. -.-
1t is my opinion that the demonstration
this morning was designed to cover their
retreat. as they were telling timber during
the entire night. probably to obstruct the
road and prevent my artillery and cavalry
following them. =
l have been holding them in check four
days. determined to hold my position till
reinforcements could arrive. Gen. Her
ron's advance cavalry will reach here to.
morrow night.
