I am sorry, very sorry, to hear what you write of Sergeant, Ill health of son of General Meade. but God's will must be done, and we must be resigned. I am trying to collect some trophies from our recent battle-fields to send you for your fair. Headquarters army of the Potomac, 9 P. M., June 9, 1864. I fully enter into all your feelings of annoyance at the manner in which I have been treated, but I do not see that I can do anything but bear patiently till it pleases God to let the truth be known and matters set right. I have noticed what you say about the Inquirer, but, as you observe, it is no worse than the other papers. Even Coppee, in the June number of his magazine, shows he, too, is demoralized, he having a flaming editorial notice of the wonderful genius of Grant. Now, t

Appendix P Newspaper article on General Meade, mentioned in letter of June 9, 1864. see page 202, Vol. II (Philadelphia Inquirer, June 2, 1864) Meade's position He is as much the commander of the Army of the Potomac as he ever was. Grant plans and exercises a supervisory control over the army, but to Meade belongs everything of detail. He is entitled to great credit for the magnificent movements of the army since we left Brandy, for they have been dictated by him. In battle he puts troops in action and controls their movements; in a word, he commands the army. General Grant is here only because he deems the present campaign the vital one of the war, and wishes to decide on the spot all questions that would be referred to him as General-in-Chief. History will record, but newspapers cannot, that on one eventful night during the present campaign Grant's presence saved the army, and the nation too; not that General Meade was on the point to commit a blunder unwittingly, bu
with the state of affairs in General Lee's front is not sufficient to enable me to form an accurate opinion on your suggestions of yesterday, as to return of Hoke and Ransom. Have therefore forwarded your despatch to General Lee. Braxton Bragg. Two days later, with that strategic discernment which characterized both himself and Jackson, General Beauregard forwarded the following written communication to Richmond: Headquarters, Department N. C. And so. Va., Swift Creek, Va., June 9th, 1864, 7 A. M. General Braxton Bragg, Comdg. C. S. Armies, Richmond, Va.: General,—The present movements of Grant's army have a significancy which cannot have escaped your observation. He clearly seeks to move around Lee's forces by an advance upon his left flank, in the direction of the James River, with a view to operate between that river and the Chickahominy, and, in case of his meeting with no adequate resistance, to plant himself on both sides of the former, throwing across it a pon
e steamer, towing up canal-boats and pontoons, with pontoniers; also steamers and schooners going up, heavily loaded; whereas those going down are light. This may indicate future operations of Grant. G. T. Beauregard. Telegram. Richmond, June 9th, 1864. To Genl. Beauregard: 11. Telegrams received and submitted. Will answer you soon. Telegraph also to General Lee, Mechanicsville Road. Braxton Bragg. Telegram. Swift Creek, June 9th, 1864. Major-Genl. B. R. Johnson: General Bragg tJune 9th, 1864. Major-Genl. B. R. Johnson: General Bragg telegraphs that since the enemy has been repulsed at Petersburg the movement for Gracie's brigade had been suspended. It is, however, held in readiness to move from Chaffin's Bluff. G. T. Beauregard. Telegram. Swift Creek, June 9th, 1864:1.30 P. M. Brig.-Genl.
