The proximity of the Union army to Lee on June 28, 1863 was a surprise. General Lee didn't have contact with JEB Stuart during the early part of the invasion of Pennsylvania. Stuart's cavalry usually supplied important information such as the position and strength of the enemy. Lee was informed of the Union Army's exact position and relative strength via a spy "Harrison" employed by General James Longstreet.
