Facts connected with the concentration of the army of the Mississippi before Shiloh, April, 1862. By Captain W. M. Polk.
To the Editor of the Southern Historical Society Papers:
Sir — In th from General Jordan, dated New York, Nov. 2, 1874, in which it is stated that the failure to win Shiloh was mainly due to the delay in getting the army out of Corinth on the 3d of April, 1862, and tha ragraph it would seem that General Polk was to precede Generals Bragg and Hardee on the march to Shiloh, for we read that they could not move, Polk being in the way, and that upon learning this Genera ile upon this subject permit me to enter more freely into this question of the delay in reaching Shiloh.
In order to do so properly, I will quote from memoranda prepared some time ago, for a forthcom re General Polk's orders.
Section 3 of the Special Orders as to the movements of troops towards Shiloh (page 189 1st Vol. Official Reports of Battles, published by Confederate Congress in 1862) reads
