could have sent an orderly back to the
main cavalry body, about mile in the
rear, and a strong force would have
been hurried around to cut off the
blues, a very important capture.
Before they were ordered to fall back
to the rear the scout of Captain Ryan
of the mixed cavalry captured about
forty privates of the blue scouting par
ties and outposts.
The first clash between the red army
of invasion that is attempting to cap
ture Boston and the blue army of de-
fense, the latter composed principally
of Massachusetts militiamen, occurred
early today near Wareham, near the
Bay of Cape Cod, when Brig. Gen.
William NJ. Pew, commanding the blue
army at Bridgewater, sent his second
brigade across the Colchester brook,
through Halifax to East Middleboro,
with the extreme left resting at Ware
ham.
The front of the second brigade had
hardly reached Wareham when de-
tachment of the red army cavalry ap-
peared and a sharp encounter took
place.

of the blue army shortly before noon
and returned with four prisoners from

Word reached headquarters shortly
after noon that a number of General
Pews scouts had been captured by the
red army.
A heavy rain fell early in the after
noon, making marching difficult.
General Pew today forwarded to Maj.

against the alleged action of Brig. Gen.
