Southern Historical Society Papers, Volume 12. (ed. Reverend J. William Jones), The gallant Pelham and his gun at Fredericksburg. (search)
tter, which, at once and conclusively, shows that he has made a mistake. He says that when his gun was detached to follow General Stuart and Colonel Rosser, We were advanced by half battery to the front, firing at our level best as we went forward. That is, his gun was not detached until the engagement of the artillery had become general along the line. Now, Channing Price says that where Pelham was engaged with Henry's Napoleon, not a gun on our long line, from Fredericksburg to Hamilton's Crossing, had yet fired; only Pelham, with his Napoleon, and soon afterwards a Blakely, nearer the railroad. Every report of the battle confirms this statement. It is, therefore, very plain that Sergeant Pleasants's gallant detachment must have served one of the other guns which are particularized by Channing Price, and that the honor which has for so long a time been ascribed to Pelham and his Napoleon, cannot yet be given to another.
