Read the following text from a memoir by Moxley Sorrel. This excerpt is about Confederate spy Henry Harrison.

Question

While Longstreet was holding this position, a scout, more properly a spy, was placed at his service by the War Department. His time seemed to be passed about equally within our lines and the enemy's. Harrison (such was his name) always brought us true information. There was always confirmation of his reports afterwards.
While one is always suspicious that such spies give away as much as they bring and may be in the pay of both sides, it was difficult to be sure of this in Harrison's case. He went everywhere, even through Stanton's War Office at Washington itself, and brought in much. We never discovered that he sold anything against us; besides, we verified his account of himself as coming from Mississippi.

Answer 1

Based on the excerpt, the most accurate conclusion is that Sorrel trusted Harrison as a spy. Sorrel mentions that Harrison always brought true information and that there was confirmation of his reports afterward. While there was some suspicion of spies in general, Sorrel specifically notes that they never discovered any evidence that Harrison sold information against them, and they verified his background. There is no indication that Sorrel was unaware of Harrison's role as a spy or that he was amused by him.
