Three Years in the Confederate Horse Artillery — George Michael Neese.

August 3 — In camp. General R. E. Lee passed our camp to-day; he rode leisurely along the road unaccompanied by any one, and seemed as unconcerned as an old farmer going to his daily toil.

To-day General A. P. Hill, with his corps of infantry, passed our camp.
