abstract
{"value"=>"Arrived home the night before from Sumner's camp; the enemy, about 300, are too strong for any force he can raise; they have moved from Richmond, but intend to return in a few days; cannot depend on his men; is now on his way to Henry County to hasten the aid from that place; meantime, this county lies exposed, as almost every good man is already in service; suggests that some light-horse be sent from camp; Col. Wright and his brother are at the head of the marauders."}
