Lee and Longstreet and the others were traitors pure and simple.
The plan which General Lee adopted may have been his own, but the idea first originated in the soldierly brain of Longstreet.
Longstreet was brave enough to follow the path of duty as he saw it, no matter where it led.

Longstreet was giving up the struggle, and his men were falling back.
If Longstreet's despatch is true, he is under the impression that we have largely detached.
