A friend of mine has just come in, and tells me that at eight this morning a regiment on their way to Bourget found the Mobiles who were in it falling back.

Some Prussian troops appeared from between Stains and Courneuve, and attempted to cut off the retreat.

Whether we lost any cannon my friend does not know.

He thinks not.

Some of our troops were trapped, the others got away, and fell back on the barricades in front of Aubervilliers.
