George Meade, The Life and Letters of George Gordon Meade, Major-General United States Army (ed. George Gordon Meade), chapter 28 (search)
Appendix U: newspaper article, in favor of General Meade, mentioned in letter of April 18, 1865. see page 273, Vol. II (New York Herald, April 14, 1865) General Meade The impression seems to have gotten out at the North that General Meade is not very popular with his army. This is a great mistake, and has been fully verified in the past two days. I never saw so much enthusiasm displayed for any man as was for him after the surrender of Lee's army. Our troops were drawn up on either side of the road and when General Meade rode through they seemed nearly crazed with joy. Cheer followed cheer, and hats were thrown up in the air with apparent disregard of where they should land or what became of them. General Meade was equally excited. He seemed for the time to throw off his reserve and dignity and enter fully into the spirit of the occasio
deserters, that Schoefield's corps (23d), from Middle Tennessee, and Sheridan's (19th), from the Valley of Virginia, have joined Sherman's army, it cannot be estimated at less than fifty-four thousand infantry and artillery—i. e., six corps, at nine thousand men each—to whom must be added about four thousand cavalry, forming a total of not less than fifty-eight thousand disciplined and well-organized men. General Sherman afterwards informed General J. E. Johnston, in North Carolina (April 18th, 1865), that he had over seventy thousand men in all. G. T. Beauregard, General. When it became necessary to operate with the Confederate forces mentioned in the first part of the foregoing report, it was found that their number was most sadly diminished. This reduction—which caused extreme disappointment to General Beauregard—was due to the exhaustion of the men, numbers of whom had dropped out of the ranks on the march, never afterwards reporting for duty; and to the fact that the Ge
ice, should it become necessary. Respectfully, your obedient servant, G. T. Beauregard, Genl. 2d Comdg. Lieut.-Genl. W. J. Hardee, Comdg. Corps near Salem, N. C. Official. R. C. Gilchrist, A. A. A. G. Hampton's Headquarters, April 18th, 1865. Genl. G. T. Beauregard: Please give the necessary instructions to carry me by train from Greensboroa to Salisbury to-morrow morning. John C. Breckinridge, Secty. of War. Headquarters, near Salem, N. C., April 18th, 1865. April 18th, 1865. General,—A large number of my command deserted last night—some with horses from the reserve artillery. I anticipate many more will go to-day and to-night. Very respectfully, W. J.
