GENERAL: To-day heard a report coming
from PeieEsburg to the effect that you had or
dered the evacuation Of that place when it was
threatened q few weeks since by the enemy I
at once fatty e0ntradicted the report, and stated
what were faeis-that to my knowledge every
effort was made by you to hold il, and to keep
open communication with the city. Hsygood' 3
brigade, which bad been ordered 70 Drewry's
bluff, was sent to Port Walthall junction, and
J0hnson's brigade, Of my command, was hur-
ried to the same point, to hold the railroad and
cover Petersburg from attack. The most posi-
tive orders were given, and being constantly
with you and comforting shout the dsfensss of
both this city and Petersburg, you can appreci-
ate my surprise at hearing the report above sllu-
ded TO, when l had heard orders sent which had
sn eye single to the aefsHSe of Petersburg and
keeping open communication between there and
the army of Northern Virginia. Whence have
emanated these groundless rumors an at q
loss to know. Certainly, either from the inagi-
nation Of those wholly ignorant of the facts, or
else from those who, from malice, wish to iniure
men who have faithfully served our country and
watched its best interests.
If il should become necessary to refute false
hood yoa can use this as you may see fit.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
3. RANSOM, ia,
Major- General.
