We marched from our
encampment last evening at Annandale to Centerville.
Just as we passed Fairfax C. H
Gen. Slocum directed me to go forward and obtain all the information possible relative to the work of yesterday the events of today and our present line of battle. I would learn nothing of Gen. Butterfield, who with the rest of Gen Porters corps reached Centerville just as I arrived.

there. Afterward saw Gen. Griffin who could tell me nothing. Then road up Warrenton Pike saw Gen Sturgis and talked with one of his aides; but learned nothing.
After passing Cub Run met a
gentleman who was serving as an Engineer on Gen. McDowell's corp and who told me much that was interesting.
