This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Critical Examination (in Part) Of Pennypacker's Life of General George G. Meade "The Ninth Corps was moved by rail to Annapolis, where it was recruited up to about twenty-five thousand men. As the time for action neared it was set in motion, and by easy marches reached and re-enforced the Army of the Potomac on the morning of the 6th of May. in the midst of the battle of the Wilderness. It was not formally incorporated with that army until later, but by a sort of Action, it was held to be a distinct army, Burnside acting in concert with Meade, and receiving his orders directly from Grant, as did Meade. These two armies were the excuse for Grant's personal presence, without actually superseding Meade. "In my opinion the great soldier of the Army of the Potomac at this time was General Humphreys. He.was the chief of staff to General Meade and was a strategist, a tactician, and an engineer. Humphreys was a lighter, too, and in this an exception to most engineers. He was a very interesting figure. He used to ride about in a black felt hat. the brim of which was turned down all around, making him look like a Quaker. He was very pleasing to deal with, unless you were fighting against him. and then he was not so pleasant. [He was a Quaker by descent.] Humphreys was a very charming man. quite destitute of vanity. I think he had consented to go and serve with Meade as chief of staff out of pure patriotism. He preferred an active command, and eventually on the eve of the end, succeeded to the command of the [combined] Second [Third]Corps, and bore a conspicuous part in the Appomatox campaign. - Charles A. Dana's Recollections page 191-2. "Before the army had recovered from itslong march from Cold Harbor and the failure to capture [Petersburg] there was an unusual amount of controversy going on among the officers. Meade and Warren were so at loggerheads that Meade notified Warren that he must either ask to be relieved as corps-commander or he (Meade) would prefer charges against him. It seemed as if Meade grew more unpopular every day. Finally the difficulties between him and his subordinates became so serious that a change in the commander of the Army of the Potomac seemed probable. "The Fifth Corps having prepared the way. the whole army left the lines about Cold Harbor on schedule time, just as soon after nightfall on the 12th [June 1864] as its movements could be concealed from the observation of the enemy. It was in drawing orders for such complicated movements as these, along different roads and by different crossings, that the ability of General Humphreys, the chief of staff, was displayed. Everything went perfectly from the start." Page 218 "I had long known Meade to be a man of the worst possible temper, especially toward his subordinates. I think he had not a friend in the whole army. No man, no matter what his business or his service, approached him without being insulted in one way or another, and his own staff officers did not dare to speak to him unless first spoken to. for fear of either sneers or curses. The latter however, I had never heard him indulge in very violently, but be was said to apply them often without occasion, and without reason. At the same time, as far as I was able to ascertain, his generals had lost their confidence in him as a commander. His orders for the last series of assaults upon Petersburg, ill which we lost ten thousand men without gaining any decisive advantage, were greatly criticised. They were, in effect, that he bad found it impractible to secure the co-operation of corps-commanders, and that, therefore, each one was to attack on his own account and do the best he could by himself.

Download or read book Men of Mark written by William J. Simmons and published by . This book was released on 1887 with total page 1376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TO PRESUME to multiply books in this day of excellent writers and learned book-makers is a rash thing perhaps for a novice. It may even be a presumption that shall be met by the production itself being driven from the market by the keen, searching criticism of not only the reviewers, but less noted objectors. And yet there are books that meet a ready sale because they seem like "Ishmaelites"--against everybody and everybody against them. Whether this work shall ever accomplish the design of the author may not at all be determined by its sale. While I hope to secure some pecuniary gain that I may accompany it with a companion illustrating what our women have done, yet by no means do I send it forth with the sordid idea of gain. I would rather it would do some good than make a single dollar, and I echo the wish of "Abou Ben Adhem," in that sweet poem of that name, written by Leigh Hunt. The angel was writing at the table, in his vision. The names of those who love the Lord.Abou wanted to know if his was there--and the angel said "No." Said Abou, I pray thee, then, write me as one that loves his fellow-men. That is what I ask to be recorded of me. The angel wrote and vanished. The next night It came again, with a great awakening light. And showed the names whom love of God had blessed. And lo! Ben Adhem's name led all the rest. I desire that the book shall be a help to students, male and female, in the way of information concerning our great names. I have noticed in my long experience as a teacher, that many of my students were wofully ignorant of the work of our great colored men--even ignorant of their names. If they knew their names, it was some indefinable something they had done--just what, they could not tell. If in a slight degree I shall here furnish the data for that class of rising men and women, I shall feel much pleased. Herein will be found many who had severe trials in making their way through schools of different grades. It is a suitable book, it is hoped, to be put into the hands of intelligent, aspiring young people everywhere, that they might see the means and manners of men's elevation, and by this be led to undertake the task of going through high schools and colleges. If the persons herein mentioned could rise to the exalted stations which they have and do now hold, what is there to prevent any young man or woman from achieving greatness? Many, yea, nearly all these came from the loins of slave fathers, and were the babes of women in bondage, and themselves felt the leaden hand of slavery on their own bodies; but whether slaves or not, they suffered with their brethren because of color. That "sum of human villainies" did not crush out the life and manhood of the race. I wish the book to show to the world--to our oppressors and even our friends--that the Negro race is still alive, and must possess more intellectual vigor than any other section of the human family, or else how could they be crushed as slaves in all these years since 1620, and yet to-day stand side by side with the best blood in America, in white institutions, grappling with abstruse problems in Euclid and difficult classics, and master them? Was ever such a thing seen in another people? Whence these lawyers, doctors, authors, editors, divines, lecturers, linguists, scientists, college presidents and such, in one quarter of a century?
