ve left the right of Davies's exposed, and the way into Corinth open to the enemy. Now this order, which is the one Rosecrans claims as his order to attack the enemy, was given as follows in his article on this engagement, in The century for October, 1886 [see p. 746]: Colonel Ducat, acting chief-of-staff, was sent with an order to General Hamilton, to file by fours to the left and march down until the head of his column was opposite Davies's right. He was ordered then to face his brigade utterance on the part of General Rosecrans has ever acknowledged the services so-rendered. An order to charge at Corinth. by David S. Stanley, Major-General, U. S. V. An assertion made by General Rosecrans in The century magazine for October, 1886, is misleading. The statement [see p. 751] is as follows : I ordered the 27th Ohio and the 11th Missouri to kneel in rear of the right of Robinett so as to get out of the range of the enemy's lire, and the moment he had exhausted himself

ndon its position on the right of the army entirely, and pass either to the rear or front of Davies in order to reach the place indicated, and would therefore have destroyed every possible chance of attacking the enemy in the flank, and would also have left the right of Davies's exposed, and the way into Corinth open to the enemy. Now this order, which is the one Rosecrans claims as his order to attack the enemy, was given as follows in his article on this engagement, in The century for October, 1886 [see p. 746]: Colonel Ducat, acting chief-of-staff, was sent with an order to General Hamilton, to file by fours to the left and march down until the head of his column was opposite Davies's right. He was ordered then to face his brigade west-south-west and to move down in a south-westerly direction. The order, as I have given it, is all exact copy of the original now in my possession, and General Rosecrans's statement of it in The century was made from a defective memory after

An order to charge at Corinth. by David S. Stanley, Major-General, U. S. V. An assertion made by General Rosecrans in The century magazine for October, 1886, is misleading. The statement [see p. 751] is as follows : I ordered the 27th Ohio and the 11th Missouri to kneel in rear of the right of Robinett so as to get out of the range of the enemy's lire, and the moment he had exhausted himself to charge with the bayonet. The lapse of a quarter of a century has certainly made the memory of the worthy general treacherous, for at the time that his memory causes him to say that he gave this order, I saw him a quarter of a mile away trying to rally Davies's troops to resist the advancing forces of the Confederates, and I consider it impossible for the two regiments to have heard any order from him above the rifle's rattle and the cannon's roar at such a distance. I cannot say what General Rosecrans may have said to these regiments about using the bayonet when visiting my line
