He thought everything would be ready in less than a week. I think his account of his conversation with Myers can be relied on. General Butler and Admiral Lee examined a courier of General Pickett's, and he was sent to me March eighth. He stated: Impression when he left was that Newbern would be attacked when the ram was done. General Hoke said it was a pity they had not waited for the ram, as Newbern might have been taken without trouble. General Hoke placed three hundred men at work on the iron-clad.

e twentieth and twenty-first, our troops entered Wilmington on the morning of the twenty-second, the enemy having retreated toward Goldsboroa during the night. Preparations were at once made for a movement on Goldsboroa in two columns--one from Wilmington, and the other from Newbern — and to repair the railroad leading there from each place, as well as to supply General Sherman by Cape Fear river, toward Fayetteville, if it became necessary.
