One night in the spring of 1863 I was sitting in my tent opposite Suffolk, Virginia, when there came in a slender, wiry fellow about five feet eight, with hazel eyes, dark hair and complexion, and brown beard.
He wore a citizen's suit of dark material, and except for his stooping shoulders was well formed and evidently a man of great activity.

Cettysburg lies partly between Seminary Ridge on the west and Cemetery Ridge on the south-east, a distance of abo cticable character was reported to our commanding general.
He informed me that he had ordered Longstreet to attack on that front at sunrise the next morning.
And he added to myself, I want you to be fore sunrise, so as to reexamine and save time.
He also desired me to communicate with General Longstreet as well as with himself.
The reconnoissance was accordingly made as soon as it was light y.
