Female Hessian and Her Companion
Capt. Fremaux and Wm. S. Read of the 8th Louisiana Regiment, arrived on Wednesday evening, with the first female prisoner, a Mrs. Curtis, who was captured at Fall’s Church on Sunday last, dressed in military clothes. She belongs, it appears, to the 2nd N.Y. Regiment. The woman was on horseback at the time.
