The enemy, anticipating us, had torn up the bridge, and held the opposite bank, and obstructed the road — without, however, making any determined stand. Captain W. W. Blackford, corps of engineers, assigned to duty with my command, set about repairing the bridge, and in half an hour, with the details furnished him, the bridge wasor his merit and capacity. The officers and men of that battery emulated the example of their Captain, and did justice to a reputation already won. Captain William W. Blackford, of the engineers, assigned to duty with me the day before the battles, was always in advance, obtaining valuable information of the enemy's strength, nd enabled us to know exactly the enemy's position and strength near Atlee's Station. Accompanying this report, I have the honor to submit a map, drawn by Captain Blackford, corps of engineers, of the region of country traversed by the cavalry, showing the extent of its operations, and exhibiting the various engagements in which

An incident of Lee's surrender. Colonel William W. Blackford, of the First Regiment of Engineer Troops, Army of Northern Virginia (formerly a member of the staff of General J. E. B. Stuart), furnishes us with the following account of a scene witnessed by him on the 9th April, 1865: During a large part of the day of the surrender at Appomattox, General Lee and his staff remained in an apple orchard near the village. The road from this orchard to army headquarters lay through a little valley, and upon the hills on either side a considerable portion of our forces were encamped. After arranging the details of the surrender, Lee mounted his horse to return to his quarters. Always an imposing figure, his appearance that day was particularly noble and striking in the full-dress uniform he had put on, with sword and sash. He rode his favorite horse, Traveller, a superb iron gray, so well-known in the army, and his seat in the saddle was the perfection of firmness and manly grace
