GENERAL LEE IN 1S66.
Text Appearing After Image:
SOLDIER, CITIZEN AND CHRISTIAN PATRIOT. 319 demoralization such as I had never seen before, and yet the enddid not come. While our cavalry was pushing the fleeing forcesnorthward the infantry was making a short cut across country tointercept them if they succeeded in turning south. There hadbeen a good deal of talking of bagging for several years, but nowit really seemed as if the net was spread and the game could notescape. General Ewell recognized the futility of further fighting,and wanted General Sheridan to send to General Lee a flag oftruce and demand his surrender, which Sheridan did not dobecause he probably thought overtures should come from the otherside. Besides, General Grant was in chief command, and he couldtake the initiative if he deemed it proper. But there was to bestill more fighting at High Bridge over the Appomattox River,where the Union loss was 1041, and at Farmville, where our losswas 655. The Confederate losses were not reported.
