Excerpt from From Gettysburg to the Rapidan: The Army of the Potomac, July, 1863, to April, 1864 The evening of the 3d of July closed the fighting at Gettysburg. The 4th and part of the 5th were occupied by the Army of the Potomac in attending to the wounded and burying the dead. A field return of the army on the 5th of July showed that its seven infantry corps had, on an average, the numbers usually found in a division, four of them having about 5,000 enlisted men each, the total of the seven amounting to 47,087 enlisted men armed and equipped. On the night of the 4th of July the Army of Northern Virginia began its retreat, leaving behind a large number of its wounded.

From Gettysburg to the Rapidan: The Army of the Potomac, July, 1863, to April, 1864 is a narrative that was intended to form the first part of Vol. XII of the Scribner Campaigns of the Civil War but was necessarily excluded from the said volume by its bulk. TABLE OF CONTENTS PREFACE. CHAPTER I. General Lee retreats from Gettysburg and crosses the Potomac at Williamsport, intrenching his position to cover the crossing-General Meade follows in pursuit by his left flank-Finds Lee covered by intrenchments too strong to attack without careful examination; but his reconnoissance in force is too late to prevent the crossing-While covering Washington, Meade forces Lee to abandon the Shenandoah Valley, with its large food supplies, and to take position between the Rappahannock and the Rapidan. CHAPTER II. The movement to Centreville-Meade advances against Lee, who is forced to withdraw beyond the Rapidan. CHAPTER III. General Meade Crosses the Rapidan, expecting to surprise General Lee, and encounter his Forces in detail-The plan is frustrated by the failure of the Third Corps to unite with the Second and Sixth Corps on the morning of the second day at Robertson's Tavern-Meade Advances to Mine Run, makes dispositions to attack Lee; but finding him too strongly posted and intrenched, withdraws to his former position on the Rapidan. CHAPTER IV. The Army of the Potomac makes a Demonstration against Lee on the Rapidan to aid General Butler's proposed Attack on Richmond, but only spoils its own chance for surprising Lee in his Winter Quarters-Kilpatrick's attempt to capture Richmond, and release the prisoners of Libby and other Military Prisons.

By the 9th of October some of the troops sent away in the summer were returned to the army, and a good many recruits had been sent to it, so that the subject of a movement by the right flank was resumed. On the afternoon of the 7th a signal despatch from General Stuart to General Fitzhugh Lee was read by our signal officer on Pony Mountain, directing him to draw three days' hard bread and bacon, which indicated a movement of some kind, supposed to be a cavalry operation on our right; and Prince's division of the Third Corps was ordered to James City to support Kilpatrick's cavalry division. On the 8th General Sedgwick reported indications of a movement of the enemy on our right. On the 9th General Meade and myself rode to Cedar Mountain to have a better look at the country in the direction of a certain pass through Southwest Mountain, having in view the movement by the right flank.
