Question. When did you arrive at Chattanooga?

I arrived in Chattanooga just as the rear of the army was passing the river. Saw General Bragg on the south of the river. Cannot positively fix the date.

Question. Did you see the whole of the army at Chattanooga or near there?

I saw what I considered all the army after I crossed the river on the march.

Question. Had any portion of the army left the river when you arrived; and, if so, what portion of it?

A portion of it had, but what portion of it I could not state. A portion of it had marched 4 or 5 miles from the river and camped.

Question. Did the army cross Walden's Ridge by one or more than one road?

I should think they nearly all crossed by the old Anderson road.

Question. Did you accompany the army on the march; and, if so, what portion of it, how long, and up to what point?

When the army camped on the north side of the river, that night after dark I rode to General Wheeler's cavalry brigade; this was the advance of the army, I think, at that time, that went on the road I mentioned before, the old Anderson road. I think it passed over the next day. I passed with it. It went as far as a Mr. Bennett's house, about 3 or 4 miles from Dunlap, at the point where the road entered the Sequatchie Valley. It was there I saw the army cross the next day and there made my estimate of its strength. I arrived at my conclusion in regard to the strength by conversation with officers on the road from Tupelo to Chattanooga and by observation while with the army. I counted one or two regiments in Cheatham's division; most of his men are Tennesseeans. One or two in General Wither's division; General Withers' division I supposed to be chiefly Alabamians.

Question. Did the whole of the army cross at Chattanooga?

The portion I saw crossed at Chattanooga.

Question. Did it halt in Sequatchie Valley while you were there or continue its march?

I cannot state as to that; I left.

Question. Did you count the divisions as they came into the valley?

No, sir; I did not.

Question. What reason have you to believe that you saw the whole of the army at that time?

I heard it started that the whole army was there. I also saw a great number of soldiers.

Question. Did the artillery cross by the same road? Did it cross with the troops or separately?

There was artillery that followed the cavalry and also infantry that was with the artillery.

Question. Can you state how much artillery crossed with the cavalry?

No, sir; I don't know how many pieces; a good many. I saw some infantry cross with the artillery, but that all the infantry crossed by that road I can't say.

Question. Did you see any artillery besides that that accompanied the cavalry?

I saw other artillery in the valley; I mean to say I saw more artillery in the valley than I thought I had seen cross the mountains.

Question. Did you count the number of pieces then?

I never routed the artillery, no more than that. As I said before, I saw in some
