{"value"=>"Reports an action between his force of 100 cavalry and a body of 300 men under Marrion at Watboo; agreeable to Gen. Leslie's orders he proceeded from Blanis House on Aug. 28th; he drove in the enemy's pickets, but the main body, being protected by the brick house, log houses, and fences, could not be dislodged; in the second attempt Capt. Gilles was killed; he captured the enemy's ammunition-wagon and their baggage; he then proceeded towards Hugee's Bridge and collected cattle and sheep; Gen. Marrion sent Maj. Connyers with Maham's cavalry in pursuit, but they did not come within sight."}
