Just before sundown I got up a battery (Lane's) of Cutt's battalion to open upon the Yankee column, advancing toward that pike, while Colonel Stephen Lee brought up another farther on the right. These checked the Yankee advance, and enabled Jackson to take position on Hood's left, and covering any attempt to turn us in that direction. My ranks had been diminished by some additional stragg had been gathered up and placed upon their left. It was now apparent that the Yankees were massing in our front, and that their grand attack would be made upon my position, which was the centre of our line. I sent several urgent messages to General Lee for reenforcements ; but before any arrived, a heavy force (since ascertained to be Franklin's corps) advanced in three parallel lines, with all the precision of a parade day, upon my two brigades.

Scott, with the Forty-fourth Virginia, had left on the 2d to join him, to be followed promptly by Col. Edward Johnson, with the Twelfth Georgia, and by Col. Stephen Lee, with the Sixth North Carolina.

Johnston is authority for the statement that for many months previous to its surrender, General Lee's army had been fed almost entirely from North Carolina, and that at the time of his own surrender he had collected provisions enough from the same State to last for some months.

I wrote, June 11th: It is their intention to occupy the western part of this State to the Alleghanies, and if possible to the Blue Ridge. General Lee, to put him, Garnett, on his guard, at once replied, July 11th: I do not think it probable that the enemy will confine himself to that portion of the northwestook to the future with the same bright anticipations I did at sixteen. Time at last puts all things right. Truly your friend, W. W. Loring. accompanied him in Lee's movement against Cheat Mountain, also against Rosecrans on the Big Sewell Mountain.
