e, and not in charge of the sick. Upon arriving opposite Garlick's, I ordered a squadron from the Ninth Virginia cavalry to destroy whatever could be found at the landing on the Pamunkey. Two transports, loaded with stores, and a large number of wagons were here burnt, and the squadron rejoined the column with a number of prisoners, horses and mules. A squadron of the First Virginia cavalry (Hammond's) assisted in this destruction. A few picked men, including my aids, Burke, Farley and Mosley, were pushed forward rapidly to Tunstall's, to cut the wires, and secure the depot.

Content with a distant view, they fled, leaving their train in our hands. The party that reached the railroad at Tunstall's surprised the guard at the depot, fifteen or twenty infantry

I walked into his room with two of my men, and shaking him in bed, said: General, get up. He rose up, rubbing his eyes, and asked what was the meaning of all this. I replied: It means, sir, that Stuart's cavalry are in possession of this place, and
