Rebellion Record: a Diary of American Events: Documents and Narratives, Volume 10. (ed. Frank Moore), chapter 46 (search)
bringing this portion of my report to a conclusion, to state emphatically that the advance movement of the army from Edwards' Depot, on the afternoon of the fifteenth of May, was made against my judgment, in opposition to my previously expressed intentions, and to the subversion of my matured plans. In one contingency alone I hain his official report that it was received at six P. M., on the sixteenth, whilst on the retreat (from the battle field of Baker's Creek). On the next day, May fifteenth (Friday), the troops under me marched ten and a half miles further, to Calhoun Station. On the morning of that day I received a letter from General Pemberton, River. Vicksburg was greatly imperilled when my instructions from Tullahoma to concentrate were neglected; it was lost when my orders of the thirteenth and fifteenth of May were disobeyed. To this loss were added the labor, privations, and certain destruction of a gallant army, when my orders for its evacuation were set aside.
