FORT LEAVENWORTH, May 3, 1864.
Brig. Gen. C. B. FISK,
Saint Joseph:
Quantrill crossed the Arkansas on the 22d ultimo, but was driven back. A party of about 80, under Dick Yeager, are in Henry or Cass County; probably camped last night at Mrs. Wilson's, on Big Muddy, near county line between Henry and Cass. Have so telegraphed to General Rosecrans. Keep me posted if you get intelligence.
S. R. CURTIS,
Major-General.
