Johnson: Colonel,—General Stuart directs me to say that he would be glad to obtain one of your light batteries to assist him to-day, as he is short of artillery. Our cavalry is interposed between ridges.

Stuart, Major-General. With the intuition of a great soldier Stuart threw himself on Sheridan's rear, and thus drew him away from Richmond to give time for troops to get into the city to defend it.
