What information did Van Lew relay to Union army commanders? Check all that apply.

a-how long the prisoners stayed
b-where the prisoners had been
c-who commanded which rebel armies
d-the morale of rebel troops
e-where the rebel troops were headed
f-what the Richmond underground was

Context: In hushed tones, she talked to the men about where they had been and what they had seen and heard. The more she listened to the prisoners, the more she realized that they possessed information that could be of value to the Union army. Alert federal soldiers took notice of rebel troop strength and movement. They recognized who commanded which rebel armies. Overhearing conversations of the Confederates who captured and transported them to prison often offered insight into the morale of the rebel troops. As any good spy will do, Van Lew listened attentively to the information the soldiers provided, and then, with the help of the Richmond underground, she passed it on to Union army commanders.
