ded. We had no subsistence for man or horse, and it could not be gathered in the country. The supplies ordered from Lynchburg could not reach us, and the men, deprived of food and sleep for many days, were worn out and exhausted. With great respect, your obedient servant, His Excellency Jefferson Davis. R. E. Lee, General. Maj.-Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, who commanded the cavalry corps of the army of Northern Virginia during the Appomattox campaign, sent to Gen. R. E. Lee, from Richmond, April 22, 1865, a report of the operations of his command from the 28th of March to the 8th of April. Of the events near the time of the surrender, he wrote: During the evening of the 8th I received orders to move the cavalry corps to the front and to report in person to the commanding general. Upon arriving at his headquarters I found General Longstreet there, and we were soon after joined by General Gordon. The condition of our situation was explained by the commanding general to us as the com

Report of Major-General Fitzhugh Lee of the operations of the cavalry corps A. N. V. From march 28th to April 9th, 1865 (both inclusive). Richmond, Va., April 22, 1865. General R. E. Lee: General,—I comply with pleasure with the desire expressed by you to have a report of the last operations of the cavalry of your army, and have the honor to submit the following: On the 28th of March my division moved from its position on the extreme left of our lines in front of Richmond, on the north side of James River, marched to Petersburg and up the Southside Railroad, reaching Sutherland Station, nineteen miles from Petersburg, on the 29th. In compliance with verbal instructions received from you, I marched the next day (30th) towards Dinwiddie C. H., via Five Forks, to watch and counteract the operations threatened by the massing of the Federal cavalry at Dinwiddie C. H. under Sheridan. After passing Five Forks, a portion of the enemy's cavalry were encountered with success

fantry. E. E. Smith, Co. K, 3d Regiment S. C. Infantry. [26] Gary's Cavalry Brigade. This document was obligingly furnished by General J C. Kelton, Acting Adjutant and Inspector-General United States Army, Washington, D. C., being a copy of the original in his Department. A majority of the cavalry of the Army of Northern Virginia appear not to have been surrendered at Appomattox Courthouse. In a report of General Fitzhugh Lee, commanding the cavalry, to General R. E. Lee, dated April 22, 1865, he states that Generals T. L. Rosser and T. T. Munford, commanding divisions, succeeded in cutting their way through the lines of the Federal Army, and immediately made arrangements to continue the struggle, until the capitulation of General Johnston's army brought the convincing proof that a further resistance was useless. A printed order (No. 6), issued from near Lynchburg, Va., April 21, 1865, to his command by General Munford--a copy of which is before the editor-glows with patriot

that nothing can be as disastrous to us as a peace founded on a restoration of the Union. * * * If you should propose to cross the Mississippi, I can bring many good men to escort you over. My men are in hand and ready to follow me anywhere. * * * My plan is to collect all the men who will stick to their colors and to get to Texas. I can carry with me quite a number and I can get there. To this letter, or my first one, I received the following answer by wire: near Greensborough, April 22, 1865. Letter not received. Wish to see you as soon as convenient. Will then confer. (Signed,) Jeff'n Davis. I think the word not in the above was used instead of just, for the telegram was obviously an answer to some communication from myself. On the 26th April, President Davis telegraphed to me from Charlotte, N. C., as follows: To General Wade Hampton, Greensborough If you think it better, you can, with the approval of General Johnston, select men as proposed for a later
