From here I received messages from both Sherman and Admiral Por- ter, urging me to come and take command in person, and ex- pressing their distrust of McClernand's ability and fitness for so important and intricate an expedition. OF U. S. GRANT. 26 1 On the 17th I visited McClernand and his command at Napo- leon. It was here made evident to me that both the army and navy were so distrustful of McClernand's fitness to command that, while they would do all they could to insure success, this distr...ust was an element of weakness. It would have been crim- inal to send troops under these circumstances into such danger. By this time I had received authority to relieve McClernand, or to assign any person else to the command of the river expedi- tion, or to assume command in person. I felt great embarrass- ment about McClernand. He was the senior major-general after myself within the department. It would not do, with his rank and ambition, to assign a junior over him. Nothing was left, therefore, but to assume the command myself.
