BLEDSOE, Office of Southern Review, Baltimore, Md. " MY DEAR SIR : I regret that I am unable to comply with your request to write a review of Hozier's ' Seven Weeks' War, ' but my time is so much occupied that I could not sufficiently study the campaign, or inform myself of the incidents of the war. " At the time of the occurrence, I thought I saw the mistake committed by the Austrians ; but I did not know all the facts, and you are aware that, though it is easy to write on such a sub- ject, it... is difficult to elucidate the truth. " In reply to your inquiry, I must acknowledge that I have not read the article on Chancellorsville in the last number of the Southern Review, nor have I read any of the books published on either side since the termination of hostilities. I have as yet felt no desire to revive my recollections of those events, and have been satisfied with the knowledge I possessed of what HIS MODEST HUMILITY, SIMPLICITY, AND GENTLENESS. 159 transpired. I have, however, learned from others that the vari- ous authors of the ' Life of Jackson ' award to him the credit of the success gained by the Army of Northern Virginia where he was present, and describe the movements of his corps or com- mand as independent of the general plan of operations, and un- dertaken at his own suggestion, and upon his own responsibility.
