Gouverneur K. Warren to George G. Meade, September 22, 1863

September 22, 1863. General MEADE: The firing commenced three hours since, at a point 3 miles south of Madison Court-House. It lasted oneand a half hours, and then, after a short interruption, opened again some distance to the east of that point and a little nearer to us. The rebel signals say that our cavalry is driving theirs. The also report that an hour since we crossed forces at Clark’s Ford. The rebel battery at Locust Dale was removed this morning, a regiment of cavalry taking its place. The latter half of a rebel dispatch was just intercepted saying— A complete victory. We are pursuing the flying enemy. This is supposed to refer to Rosecrans, From the general direction and progress of the firing, I should say that our cavalry is driving theirs on the Madison and Gordonsville pike.

G. K. WARREN,
