Letter
Robert S. Granger to William S. Rosecrans, December 7, 1862
BOWLING GREEN
BOWLING GREEN, December 7, 1862.
General ROSECRANS: I have received reliable information that 250 rebel cavalry are in Barren County, over the river, 12 miles from Scottsville. The messenger left Scottsville at 6 p. m. last evening. Rumor is that more troops are following the entire effective force of the Fourth Kentucky Cavalry. One hundred and ninety will leave this morning in the direction of Glasgow.
R. S. GRANGER,
Brigadier-General.
