Seeing Hooker was never going to take the offensive, Lee pulled two more Divisions, those of South Carolinian RH Anderson and Georgian Lafayette McLaws from in front of Hooker and led them himself against Sedgwick in conjunction with Jubal Early. It was to be a day of frustration for Lee, as he could not prod McLaws forward and get the 3 division attack going. Sedgwick withdrew over Banks’ Ford when he lost Marye’s Heights to Early.(Early had a great battle.)
This was the cue for Hooker to call the campaign over and he withdrew over US Ford on the 5th. Casualties were high for the four day battle: 13000 for Lee and 17000 for Hooker. Lee’s proportion was too high, considering he only had 60000 to start with.
Lee and the South had bettered an army twice the size of their own and given Virginia breathing space. Lee’s next move, as it had been in 62, after a victory, was to move North.
Gettysburg awaited.
Jackson would never again be Lee’s “right arm”’ as he passed away on the 10th from complications from his amputation.
His last words were: let us cross over the river and rest in the shade of the trees.

Both of my favorite colors are red. You have Ferrari Red as opposed to BRG. Then you have the red color of my opponents blood as it washes over my metal studded boots of conquest. The second one is not in a Crayola box unfortunately.

So that was YOU in that old Blind Melon video!!

HAAA! LOL
i’ve never seen that till now,
Yellow has the most pop-out, it has the most emotion of the colors, it is striking, fast and violent.
Other colors are plain, and thats a good thing, becasue all though yellow is the most powerful it’s not cool in fact it’s the hottest of all colors. so other colors are good in order to support yellow.
It dons’t take a queer eye to figure this out, just line up a bunch of colors and anyone can see YELLOW PWNs!
