aintained a very comfortable establishment. General Bragg left no property, and his widow went to live with her sister in New Orleans. General Hood was far from being wealthy, and General S. Cooper was absolutely poor. Major-General Whiting, of Fort Fisher fame, who died in prison in 1864, left nothing, and General L. M. Walker, killed by Marmaduke in a duel, left but little to his wife.

This officer pointed out on the map the elevation in front of Chattanooga where General Grant and General Thomas took position to see the grand advance of the divisions against the Confederate works at the bottom of the ridge. Back of these works rose the precipitous front of the ridge. It was Grant's plan of battle to ha

inued with them until the formal dissolution of the Confederate Cabinet, at Washington, Ga., and the dispersion of its members. He returned to New Orleans in the succeeding fall and resumed his position in the University of Louisiana, and was immediately chosen dean of the medical faculty. In 1873, upon the resignation of Professor Warren Stone from the chair of surgery, he became his successor.
