Southern Historical Society Papers, Volume 16. (ed. Reverend J. William Jones), Statement of Captain Milton Rouse in regard to the charge that he violated his parole. (search)
ficial Records of the War of the Rebellion, there is a report of a United States Military Commission appointed to enquire into the surrender of Harpers Ferry. In that report I am charged by several witnesses as having violated my parole. As this book is a government official publication, I desire the courtesy of the Southern Historical Society Papers to place on record my denial and refutation of the charge. About the 5th September, 1862, I was wounded in a skirmish with some cavalry at Cooke's woods, near Charlestown, and was captured next day while in a buggy on my way to the residence of Mr. Paul Smith, near Summit Point.

He directed me to follow the surgeon, who rode up t

The following statement contains a just tribute to a gallant and efficient officer—a present honored and useful citizen of Richmond: Richmond, Va., May 29, 1888. In connection with the prevalent idea so often expressed that there was little or no discipline in the Army of Northern Virginia [?], I take pleasure in putting on record what I heard General Harry Heth say of General John R. Cooke's North Carolina brigade, composed of the Fifteenth, Twenty-seventh, Forty-sixth, Forty-eighth and Fifty-fifth North Carolina regiments. We were talking on the subject of discipline of troops, and he said that he thought at no time had the United States army ever been in better condition and discipline than the command of General Albert Sydney Johnston in Utah in 1858, and that no portion of that command was in better drill, discipline and general efficiency than the brigade above

The jailer having Brown in charge proposed to bring him into court under a guard of soldiers; Judge Parker replied that he would not permit armed men in any court of justice over which he presided, and directed the jailer to select four or five men of courage and repute who would see that not a hair of his head was touched. In conclusion, we append the following extract from the speech made by Hon. D. W. Voorhees in defense of Cooke, one of the parties who was connected and executed with John Brown: The mission on which I have visited your State is to me and to those who are with me one full of the bitterness and poison of calamity and grief.
