The Daily Dispatch: August 31, 1863., [Electronic resource], Our army correspondence. (search)
assigned to the command of the brigade of the late Gen. Barksdale. Both are superior men and officers, and, as some regard it a sine qua non, both were educated at West Point. Col. Lomax, of the 11th regiment Virginia cavalry, has been promoted Brigadier, and is in temporary command of the brigade of Gen. Jones, now under arrest and on trial before a Court- Martial on charges growing out of the late General Order reducing transportation. Major A. G. Pendleton, formerly Adjutant General of Gen. Jackson's corps, and now of Gen. Ewell's, has been made Lieutenant-Colonel, a deserved promotion. It is the general belief, and my own opinion, that Brig.-Gen. A. K. Wright has been acquitted of the charges preferred against him, which purported to have originated out of the order reducing the transportation of the army. Without recapitulating the facts, I would state that the charges are trivial and were not sustained by the evidence. The whole case was "a tempest in a teapot."
