That the General-in-chief, when I tokl him I was not strong enougli, in my opinion, to attack Johnston, could have ordered me to do so, if he diftered from me, as I told him all the circumstances, and asked, ' Shall I attack V " 8th. That I informed him that Johnston had gone to General Beauregard, and he himself, in his comments on my testimony (see page 241, vol. Ii. Conduct of the War), admits that he knew it before delivering battle on the 2l8t of July. " Of the testimony taken before the C...ommittee on the Conduct of the War, relative to the operations of my column, it is unnecessary for me to make a minute examination. The documentary evidence and the best informed witnesses sustain me in all that I have here presented. Some of the witnesses were honest, well- meaning gentlemen, but acquainted neither with my orders, my force, the amount of my transportation, nor anything which would enable them to form a fair judgr ment. Some were without any military knowledge or experience. To notice their strictures minutely would be tedious to the reader, and seems to be superfluous.
