In Hooker they beheld another Gideon, who was invincible. Puritanism thought he wielded re are you going?" by replying, "Back again!" was certainly one of their kith.

Here and there, an intervals of perhaps half a mile, was a cleared spot of from 50 to 100 acres. Upon these Hooker had thrown up his entrenchments, and behind them posted his artillery and infantry. In approaching them our forces had either to huddle in the narrow pass way, or feel their way as best they could through the woods above described. In additichmond would fall be fore the close of the week, basing their hopes upon, the great feats to be accomplished by Stoneman in the destruction of our lines of communication. Since the trains have commenced running through, and they have learned of Hooker's defeat, their spirits have greatly fallen, and they begin to realize that little hope exists of their reaching Richmond, save as prisoners of war.

The Doctor was then released, and proceeded on his route minus his medicines, but was immediately brought back a short distance and ordered off in a different route from that he was traveling. As he departed the commander said to him: "You will see us again in a few days, when we will burn you damned rebels entirely out!"

They were commanded by an officer in the uniform of a Captain, but he was called Colonel. The Doctor politely asked his name, but was rudely ordered to answer questions but ask none.
