General Longstreet writes, "Your note of today is received. I am surprised and grieved to learn that you have been relieved from duty with this Army. We have stood side by side in so many severely contested battlefields that I have learned to lean upon you with great confidence... I am yet full of faith that a kind and infinitely merciful Providence will not abandon us. And that we shall, after all, be successful."
