George Meade, The Life and Letters of George Gordon Meade, Major-General United States Army (ed. George Gordon Meade), chapter 6 (search)
m very plainly about my position, offered to vacate the command of the Army of the Potomac, in case he had a preference for any other. This he declined in a complimentary speech, but indicated to me his intention, when in this part of the country, of being with my army. So that you may look now for the Army of the Potomac putting laurels on the brows of another rather than your husband. To Mr. Henry A. Cram, Brother-in-law of Mrs. Meade. New York: Headquarters army of the Potomac, March 15, 1864. I received your note in due course of mail, but was so busy at the time I could not reply. It was hardly necessary for you to write that you would do anything in my defense, because I shall always fully count on you in this way. I was glad to have your sympathy, because I am free to confess the suddenness of this attack, its injurious combination of several interests against me, that really have no particular cause of complaint, has in reality astounded me and for awhile I was emb

Appendix I: newspaper article, in favor of General Meade, mentioned in letter of March 15, 1864. see page 180, Vol. II (the Round table, a Weekly record of the notable, the useful and the Tasteful) (New York, Saturday, March 12, 1864) Ought General Meade to be removed? This question is now absorbing the attention of the authorities at Washington, and soon will be, if it is not already, decided. The fatality that has attached to every commander of the brave Army of the Potomac has affixed itself to General Meade. The movement against him, at first only whispered among a few discontented subordinates in the army, has at last reached the capital, and has attained the dignity—if dignity it be—of an open opposition. The main movers appear to be General Daniel E. Sickles and the new Committee on the Conduct of the War. It is urged that General Meade is too slow; that but for the dash of some of his division commanders the victory at Gettysburg would have been a cowardly retreat;<

Appendix J: newspaper article, signed Historicus, attack on General Meade, mentioned in letter of March 15, 1864. see page 180, Vol. II (New York Herald, March 12, 1864) The battle of Gettysburg--important communication from an eye-witness — how the victory was won and how its advantages were lost--Generals Halleck's and Meade's official reports Refuted &C., &C., &C. To the editor of the Herald: The Battle of Gettysburg is the decisive battle of this war. It not only saved the Capital from invasion, but turned the tide of victory in our favor. The opinion of Europe on the failure of the rebellion dates from this great conflict. How essential then, that its real history should be known. Up to this moment no clear narrative has appeared. The sketches of the press, the reports of Generals Halleck and Meade and the oration of Mr. Everett give only phases of this terrible struggle, and that not very correctly. To supply this hiatus I send you a connected, and I hope,

Appendix M: letter from General Meade to the Department enclosing newspaper article signed Historicus, mentioned in letter of April 2, 1864. see page 186, Vol. II (for article signed Historicus, see Appendix J) Headquarters, army of the Potomac, March 15, 1864. Col. E. D. Townsend, A. A. G. Washington, D. C. Colonel. I enclose herewith a slip from the New York Herald of the 12th inst., containing a communication signed Historicus, purporting to give an account of the battle of Gettysburg to which I desire to call the attention of the War Department—and ask such action thereon as may be deemed proper and suitable. For the past fortnight the public press of the whole country has been teeming with articles, all having for their object assaults upon my reputation as an officer, and tending to throw discredit upon my operations at Gettysburg and my official report of the same. I have not noticed any of these attacks and should not now take action, but that the character
