Rappahannock.
During the presence of Longstreet's wing at Suffolk, Lee, with Jackson's wing, was confronted by the army of Hooker.
Hooker was advised of every change in my front, and assured that I would hold Longstreet as long as possible in order that he might destroy Lee. He was urged to strike before aid could be sent to the Rapidan.
Perhaps a division, or a portion of one, joined Lee, in spite of the interruption of the communications by Stoneman.
Longstreet did not; for his horses and servants fell into our hands near Suffolk, on the fourth of May.
No mention of his presence is made in any accounts of Chancellorsville, nor in the Southern history.
Jackson contended with Hooker on the first and second of May, while Early fought Sedgwick, near Fredericksburg.
On the third, Stewart succeeded Jackson.

Doc.
114. General Averells expedition.
Charleston, West Virginia, July 5, 1864.
The cavalry of this department is divided into two divisions, of which General Averell commands the second.
On the first of May this division, starting from Charleston, moved down through the uninhabited and almost unknown region of South-western Virginia, toward the Virginia and Tennessee railroad.
The design of the movement was to prevent such a concentration of the rebel force as would defeat or delay the main column of General Crook moving on Dublin depot.
For a hundred and fifty miles, across deep streams and over trackless mountains, where a Wheel had never been seen, and up which the horses were dragged, among fallen trees and huge rocks, the command held its way, surrounded on all sides by an active enemy.
The news of their approach preceded them, and at Cove Gap, eight miles from Wytheville, they encountered the command of General W. E. Jones, which, advancing against Crook, had been
