Some regiments may have been detached, but I think no division or brigade.

The determination seems to be to hold Richmond as long as possible.

I have a force sufficient to leave enough to hold our lines (all that is necessary of them), and move out with plenty to whip his whole army.

But the roads are entirely impassable.

Until they improve, I shall content myself with watching Lee, and be prepared to pitch into him if he attempts to evacuate the place.
