THREE MILES FROM YORKTOWN, June 25, 1864-12 o'clock.

Major THOMAS T. ECKERT:

I will be in Yorktown this p.m. Have been delayed in taking down line by being attacked by guerrillas and Confederate soldiers. The guards have lost 2 men in killed and 3 prisoners of Twentieth New York Cavalry. There were six dead rebels left on the ground. They carried their wounded away. Having to feel their way through the woods en route, we could not take line down very fast.
