Colonel Charles Russell Lowell to Josephine Shaw, August 20, 1863

Centreville, Aug. 20, 1863.

I came in about ten last evening, after four days' vain endeavour to get a fight out of White's Battalion, — four very pleasant days in one of the loveliest countries in the world, South and West of Leesburg.
