Major-General WARREN,
Commanding Fifth Corps:

GENERAL: General Meade desires me to say that he has directed Lieutenant Parker, chief ordnance officer of the Army, to instruct your chief ordnance officer to replenish the ammunition with the men, so as to bring it up to the allowance prescribed, and then to send his empty wagons to the rear for a fresh supply.

APRIL 1, 1865-9.30 a.m.

Major-General WEBB,

Chief of Staff:

GENERAL: I reached the crossing of the Gravelly Run early this morning and met General Sheridan there. We are massed at that point by his direction. I did not meet General Sheridan personally; General Griffin, leading the column, saw him.

If we remain in this vicinity we can get rations by the Boydton plank road; we were unable, except in part, to replenish yesterday, as ordered. The enemy did not follow with a single man when we left the White Oak road this morning.

Respectfully,

G. K. WARREN,

Major-General.
