From the Yorkville (S. C.) Enquirer
 
December 5, 1861
 
Railroad From Manassas to Centreville
   We are informed that laborers are being hired, through the Quartermaster's office, for the immediate construction of a railroad from Manassas to Centreville. As it is estimated that the work will require two months for its completion, a strong indication is afforded of the intention of our forces to winter in the region of the Potomac.
