Just before Lee surrendered McIntosh slipped through the Union lines to join Joe Johnston's Army of Tennesse in North Carolina. Nearing Johnston's surrender he slipped through the lines again to join Jefferson Davis. From here he left to go join the CSA forces of the Trans-Mississippi commanded by Simon Buckner and later joined Gen. Kirby Smith.
