The first party, crossed in boats in the darkness. I hear Gen. Lee sent reinforcements to the point of crossing night at 12 o'clock. The Yankees seem surprised they have been permitted to cross without being slaughtered, and have accordingly been ballooning in several directions since midday. As I was crossing Willis's hill, next Marye's Heights, as they are historically called, I met my old legislative friend, Charley Grattan, getting his artillery into position on that renowned elevation.
