General Johnston himself furnishes proof of the correctness of Major General Wheeler's report of the 6th, by his acknowledgment of the presence of Dibbrell's brigade on the 9th of May, in these words : Johnston's Narrative, page 307. On the same day, Major General Wheeler, with Dibbrell's and Allen's brigades, encountered a large body of Federal cavalry near Varnell's Station.

I passed on to cross the river at the same point, arriving there about half-past past ten o'clock, and found the Army of the Mississippi nearly over to the south side, which was completed by noon. Very truly yours, Walter J. Morris, Late Captain Engineer Corps, C. S. A Chief Engineer, Army of Mississippi N. B.--Enclosed her
