American Civil War
April 7, 1865: Surrender Correspondence Begins
April 7, 1865 was a day of intense frustration for Robert E. Lee. Hoping to feed his army with rations waiting at Farmville, Union troops prevented that, crossing the Appomattox at bridges that Lee had ordered to be burned. His army had no choice but to continue on its hungry way, the nearest rations being at Appomattox Court House some twenty-five miles away. Longstreet in his memoirs recalled that dismal day.
I heard nothing of the affair at Sailor's Creek, nor from General Lee, until next morning. Our work at Rice's Station was not very serious, but was continued until night, when we marched and crossed the Appomattox at Farmville without loss, some of Rosser's and Mumford's cavalry following. We crossed early in the morning and received two days' rations,–the first regular issue since we left Richmond,–halted our wagons, made fires, got out cooking utensils, and were just ready to prepare a good breakfast. We had not heard of the disasters on the other route and the hasty retreat, and were looking for a little quiet to prepare breakfast, when General Lee rode up and said that the bridges had been fired before his cavalry crossed, that part of that command was cut off and lost, and that the troops should hurry on to position at Cumberland Church.
I reminded him that there were fords over which his cavalry could cross, and that they knew of or would surely find them. Everything except the food was ordered back to the wagons and dumped in.
Meanwhile, the alarm had spread, and our teamsters, frightened by reports of cavalry trouble and approaching fire of artillery, joined in the panic, put whips to their teams as quick as the camp-kettles were tumbled over the tail-boards of the wagons, and rushed through the woods to find a road somewhere in front of them. The command was ordered under arms and put in quick march, but General Lee urged double-quick. Our cavalry was then engaged near Farmville, and presently came a reckless charge of Gregg's troopers towards parts of Rosser's and Mumford's commands. Heth's division of infantry was sent to support them. As the balance of the command marched, General Lee took the head of the column and led it on the double-quick.
I thought it better to let them pass me, and, to quiet their apprehensions a little, rode at a walk. General Mahone received the attack of part of the enemy's Second Corps, like Gregg's cavalry making reckless attack. The enemy seemed to think they had another Sailor's Creek affair, and part of their attack got in as far as Poague's battery, but Mahone recovered it, and then drove off an attack against his front. General Gregg and a considerable part of his command were captured by Rosser and Mumford. At Cumberland Church the command deployed on the right of Poague's battery, but Mahone reported a move by part of Miles's division to turn his left which might dislodge him. G. T. Anderson's brigade of Field's division was sent with orders to get around the threatening force and break it up. Mahone so directed them through a woodland that they succeeded in over-reaching the threatened march, and took in some three hundred prisoners,[211] the last of our trouble for the day. General Lee stopped at a cottage near my line, where I joined him after night; the trains and other parts of his army had moved on towards Appomattox Court-House.
Just after sunset, a letter from General Grant arrived: Continue reading
April 6, 1865: Battle of Sailor's Creek
One last battle between the old adversaries the Army of the Potomac and the Army of Northern Virginia. While moving towards the Appomattox River to cross it on his march to the west, Lee was intercepted by a large Union force under Sheridan. Ewell's corps, the rearguard of the army, was surrounded and after hard fighting surrendered. Lee lost one quarter of his army. Union casualties were slightly in excess of 1,000 while Confederate casualties were 7,700, mostly prisoners.
Major General William Mahone relates this poignant moment with General Lee: Continue reading
April 5, 1865: Endgame
With the fall of Richmond the Civil War was drawing rapidly to a close. However, Lee still led the remnants of his army and he had a plan: march to the west and break contact with the Army of the Potomac and head south to join up with Johnston in North Carolina. It was unlikely that he could accomplish this, but Lee felt duty bound to try. His main initial problem was to feed his army. To accomplish this he had the army concentrate at Amelia Court House where he expected to find supplies. To his astonishment he found plenty of ammunition but no food. To feed his army he had to draw upon the civilian population:
To the Citizens of Amelia County, Va.
The Army of Northern Virginia arrived here today, expecting to find plenty of provisions, which had been ordered to be placed here by the railroad several days since, but to my surprise and regret I find not a pound of subsistence for man or horse. I must therefore appeal to your generosity and charity to supply as far as each one is able the wants of the brave soldiers who have battled for your liberty for four years. We require meat, beef, cattle, sheep, hogs, flour, meal, corn, and provender in any quantity that can be spared. The quartermaster of the army will visit you and make arrangements to pay for what he receives or give the proper vouchers or certificates. I feel assured that all will give to the extent of their means.
R. E. Lee, General
The next day Lee found his path south blocked as the Army of the Potomac occupied Jetersville. General Longstreet in his memoirs gives us the details:
April 4, 1865: Lincoln Visits Richmond
When studying the past one of the primary rules is to remember how different one time is from another. This rule comes jarringly to mind when we recall Lincoln's visit to Richmond the day after it fell. Lincoln was at City Point on the James River, so he was quite close to Richmond. Lincoln was curious to see the city that had eluded Union armies for such a long time. Since he wanted to see it, he did, almost with no security. I cannot possibly imagine any chief of state today taking an informal tour of an enemy capital the day after it fell! Any chief of security would have a stroke at the time. John Hay, one of Lincoln's secretaries, did note after the trip, that anyone who wanted to take a shot at Lincoln in Richmond could have. Yes, the past is a different country!
Admiral David Dixon Porter who accompanied Lincoln in his journey into Richmond later wrote about it in his memoirs: Continue reading
April 3, 1865: Fall of Richmond
After all the blood shed to take Richmond, its fall was anti-climactic. Grant was moving his army in pursuit of Lee, and entry of Union troops was unopposed, the Confederate military and the civilian government having evacuated the city on the evening of April 2. The mention of the fall of Richmond receives scant attention from Grant in his memoirs:
Soon after I left President Lincoln I received a dispatch from General Weitzel which notified me that he had taken possession of Richmond at about 8.15 o'clock in the morning of that day, the 3d, and that he had found the city on fire in two places. The city was in the most utter confusion. The authorities had taken the precaution to empty all the liquor into the gutter, and to throw out the provisions which the Confederate government had left, for the people to gather up. The city had been deserted by the authorities, civil and military, without any notice whatever that they were about to leave. In fact, up to the very hour of the evacuation the people had been led to believe that Lee had gained an important victory somewhere around Petersburg.
Weitzel's command found evidence of great demoralization in Lee's army, there being still a great many men and even officers in the town. The city was on fire. Our troops were directed to extinguish the flames, which they finally succeeded in doing. The fire had been started by some one connected with the retreating army. All authorities deny that it was authorized, and I presume it was the work of excited men who were leaving what they regarded as their capital and may have felt that it was better to destroy it than have it fall into the hands of their enemy. Be that as it may, the National troops found the city in flames, and used every effort to extinguish them. Continue reading
April 2, 1865: Third Battle of Petersburg
With Union victory at Five Forks, General Lee desperately shifted troops to the west to protect the Southside Railroad. Grant, realizing that Lee was thinning his lines around Petersburg and Richmond to protect the railroad, ordered a general assault against the Confederate fortifications.
The VI Corps achieved a major breakthrough up the Boydton Plank Road. Lee telegraphed Secretary of War Breckenridge:
I see no prospect of doing more than holding our position here until night. I am not certain I can do that. If I can I shall withdraw to-night north of the Appomattox, and, if possible, it will be better to withdraw the whole line to-night from James River. I advise that all preparations be made for leaving Richmond tonight. I will advise you later according to circumstances.
The II Corps to the left of the VI Corps and the XXIV Corps to the right of the VI Corps also achieved breakthroughs. Union casualties were about 4,000 compared to 5000 Confederate, most of whom were taken prisoner. The siege of Petersburg and Richmond was at an end as Lee moved his army out of his lines and began the march to the west that would end at Appomattox Court House.
Here is General Longstreet's account of the Third Battle of Petersburg in his memoirs: Continue reading
April 1, 1865: Battle of Five Forks
On March 31, 1865 General Pickett, commander of the Confederate forces at Five Forks had launched an attack on Sheridan's troopers driving them south to just north of Dinwiddie Court House. However, his left flank being threatened by troops of the V Corps arriving to reinforce Sheridan, Pickett retreated to Five Forks. Sheridan followed the retreating Pickett, and launched an attack on the Confederate breastworks at 1:00 PM on April 1, with two divisions of dismounted Union cavalry, armed with Sharps repeating rifles. This intense fire pinned down the Confederates while the infantry of the V Corps massed to attack the Confederate left. At 4:15 the attack went in , overcoming a stubborn Confederate defense. Sheridan removed General Warren from command of the V Corps on the grounds of being dilatory in arranging the attack of the V Corps, a decision which was ruled unfounded by an Army court of inquiry in 1883. Confederate casualties were almost 3,000 many of them prisoners, and Union casualties were 830. The Confederate right had now been turned, and largely obliterated, and the Southside Railroad lay exposed to the Union. Richmond and Petersburg could no longer be held.
Here is Sheridan's report of the battle: Continue reading
March 31, 1865: Battle of White Oak Road
Realizing that Grant was moving sufficient troops to flank his right, General Lee decided to launch an attack against the troops of the Union V Corps, holding a section of the White Oak Road and preventing the linking of the Confederate right under Pickett with the rest of Lee's army. The Union left was in the air, separated by three miles from Sheridan's troopers at Dinwiddie Court House and Lee intended to take full advantage of this fact, massing four brigades to make the attack.
The Confederates routed two Union divisions, chasing them south of Gravelly Run. At 2:30 PM the Union V Corps counterattacked across Gravelly Run, the attack spearheaded by the First Division of the V Corps. The spearhead of the spearhead was Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain's brigade, still led by Chamberlain although he had been seriously wounded at the battle of Lewis Farm on March 29, 1865. The Union counterattack was successful, recovering the lost ground and once again breaking the White Oak Road, separating the Confederate right at Five Forks from the rest of the Confederate army. Union casualties were approximately 1407 to approximately 800 Confederate.
Here is the report of Brigadier General Charles Griffin who commanded the First Division of the V Corps: Continue reading
March 30, 1865: Prelude to Five Forks
By the 30th it became obvious to both sides that the Confederate right at Five Forks was in jeopardy. Grant discusses this in his memoirs:
The next day, March 30th, we had made sufficient progress to the south-west to warrant me in starting Sheridan with his cavalry over by Dinwiddie with instructions to then come up by the road leading north-west to Five Forks, thus menacing the right of Lee's line.
This movement was made for the purpose of extending our lines to the west as far as practicable towards the enemy's extreme right, or Five Forks. The column moving detached from the army still in the trenches was, excluding the cavalry, very small. The forces in the trenches were themselves extending to the left flank. Warren was on the extreme left when the extension began, but Humphreys was marched around later and thrown into line between him and Five Forks.
My hope was that Sheridan would be able to carry Five Forks, get on the enemy's right flank and rear, and force them to weaken their centre to protect their right so that an assault in the centre might be successfully made. General Wright's corps had been designated to make this assault, which I intended to order as soon as information reached me of Sheridan's success. He was to move under cover as close to the enemy as he could get.
It is natural to suppose that Lee would understand my design to be to get up to the South Side and ultimately to the Danville Railroad, as soon as he had heard of the movement commenced on the 29th. These roads were so important to his very existence while he remained in Richmond and Petersburg, and of such vital importance to him even in case of retreat, that naturally he would make most strenuous efforts to defend them. He did on the 30th send Pickett with five brigades to reinforce Five Forks. He also sent around to the right of his army some two or three other divisions, besides directing that other troops be held in readiness on the north side of the James River to come over on call. He came over himself to superintend in person the defence of his right flank. Continue reading
March 29, 1865: Battle of Lewis Farm
The Appomattox Campaign began on March 29, 1865, with Grant moving the V and II corps to the west to outflank Lee's lines, while Sheridan and his troopers were sent south to rip up the rail lines linking Petersburg and Richmond to what remained of the Confederacy. Lee, with that preternatural sixth sense he seemed to often possess regarding the intentions of his enemies, had moved his cavalry, along with infantry under Major General George Pickett to the west to beat off Union attempts to outflank his army.
The first Union objective was to cut the Boydton Plank Road. After crossing Gravelley Run stream, the leading brigade of the first division of the V corps ran into Confederate fortifications. The brigade was led by Brigadier Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, the heroic officer who had commanded the 20th Maine during its stand on Little Round Top at Gettysburg. In a fierce action of several hours duration, Chamberlain held his position only falling back as Union reinforcements arrived. The reinforcements caused the Confederates to retreat to their White Oak Line. Union casualties were 381 to 371 Confederate.
Late in the afternoon Sheridan's cavalry occupied Dinwiddie Court House without opposition. The end of the day saw the vital, for the Confederates, Boydton Plank Road cut in two locations, and the Confederate right dangerously exposed. Here is Chamberlain's account of the fighting: Continue reading
The Peacemakers
A historic meeting occurred between Lincoln, Grant and Sherman on March 27-28, 1865 at City Point, Virginia. Sherman had no idea that President Lincoln was going to be there, he having traveled by sea from North Carolina to coordinate with Grant the final campaign of the War. This meeting was memorialized in the 1868 painting The Peacemakers, which was suggested by Sherman:
In Chicago about June or July of that year, when all the facts were fresh in my mind, I told them to George P. A. Healy, the artist, who was casting about for a subject for an historical painting, and he adopted this interview. Mr. Lincoln was then dead, but Healy had a portrait, which he himself had made at Springfield some five or six years before. With this portrait, some existing photographs, and the strong resemblance in form of [Leonard Swett], of Chicago, to Mr. Lincoln he made the picture of Mr. Lincoln seen in this group. For General Grant, Admiral Porter, and myself he had actual sittings, and I am satisfied the four portraits in this group of Healy's are the best extant. The original picture, life-size, is, I believe, now in Chicago, the property of Mr. [Ezra B. McCagg]; but Healy afterwards, in Rome, painted ten smaller copies, about eighteen by twenty-four inches, one of which I now have, and it is now within view. I think the likeness of Mr. Lincoln by far the best of the many I have seen elsewhere, and those of General Grant, Admiral Porter, and myself equally good and faithful. I think Admiral Porter gave Healy a written description of our relative positions in that interview, also the dimensions, shape, and furniture of the cabin of the "Ocean Queen"; but the rainbow is Healy's—typical, of course, of the coming peace. In this picture I seem to be talking, the others attentively listening. Whether Healy made this combination from Admiral Porter's letter or not, I cannot say; but I thought that he caught the idea from what I told him had occurred when saying that "if Lee would only remain in Richmond till I could reach Burkesville, we would have him between our thumb and fingers," suiting the action to the word. It matters little what Healy meant by his historic group, but it is certain that we four sat pretty much as represented, and were engaged in an important conversation during the forenoon of March 28, 1865, and that we parted never to meet again.
The original painting was destroyed in a fire, and what we have now is a copy found in 1922, lying forgotten in a family storehouse in Chicago. Harry Truman, ironically a proud card carrying member of Sons of Confederate Veterans, purchased the copy of the painting for the White House in 1947.
Here is Sherman's recollections of the meeting from his Memoirs:
The railroad was repaired to Goldsboro' by the evening of March 25th, when, leaving General Schofield in chief command, with a couple of staff-officers I started for City Point, Virginia, in a locomotive, in company with Colonel Wright, the constructing engineer. We reached Newbern that evening, which was passed in the company of General Palmer and his accomplished lady, and early the next morning we continued on to Morehead City, where General Easton had provided for us the small captured steamer Russia, Captain Smith. We put to sea at once and steamed up the coast, reaching Fortress Monroe on the morning of the 27th, where I landed and telegraphed to my brother, Senator Sherman, at Washington, inviting him to come down and return with me to Goldsboro. We proceeded on up James River to City Point, which we reached the same afternoon. I found General Grant, with his family and staff, occupying a pretty group of huts on the bank of James River, overlooking the harbor, which was full of vessels of all classes, both war and merchant, with wharves and warehouses on an extensive scale. The general received me most heartily, and we talked over matters very fully. After I had been with him an hour or so, he remarked that the President, Mr. Lincoln, was then on board the steamer River Queen, lying at the wharf, and he proposed that we should call and see him. We walked down to the wharf, went on board, and found Mr. Lincoln alone, in the after-cabin. He remembered me perfectly, and at once engaged in a most interesting conversation. He was full of curiosity about the many incidents of our great march, which had reached him officially and through the newspapers, and seemed to enjoy very much the more ludicrous parts-about the "bummers," and their devices to collect food and forage when the outside world supposed us to be starving; but at the same time he expressed a good deal of anxiety lest some accident might happen to the army in North Carolina during my absence. I explained to him that that army was snug and comfortable, in good camps, at Goldsboro'; that it would require some days to collect forage and food for another march; and that General Schofield was fully competent to command it in my absence. Having made a good, long, social visit, we took our leave and returned to General Grant's quarters, where Mrs. Grant had provided tea. While at the table, Mrs. Grant inquired if we had seen Mrs. Lincoln. "No," said the general, "I did not ask for her;" and I added that I did not even know that she was on board. Mrs. Grant then exclaimed, "Well, you are a pretty pair!" and added that our neglect was unpardonable; when the general said we would call again the next day, and make amends for the unintended slight.
Early the next day, March 28th, all the principal officers of the army and navy called to see me, Generals Meade, Ord, Ingalls, etc., and Admiral Porter. At this time the River Queen was at anchor out in the river, abreast of the wharf, and we again started to visit Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln. Admiral Porter accompanied us. We took a small, tug at the wharf, which conveyed us on board, where we were again received most courteously by the President, who conducted us to the after-cabin. After the general compliments, General Grant inquired after Mrs. Lincoln, when the President went to her stateroom, returned, and begged us to excuse her, as she was not well. We then again entered upon a general conversation, during which General Grant explained to the President that at that very instant of time General Sheridan was crossing James River from the north, by a pontoon-bridge below City Point; that he had a large, well-appointed force of cavalry, with which he proposed to strike the Southside and Danville Railroads, by which alone General Lee, in Richmond, supplied his army; and that, in his judgment, matters were drawing to a crisis, his only apprehension being that General Lee would not wait long enough. I also explained that my army at Goldsboro' was strong enough to fight Lee's army and Johnston's combined, provided that General Grant could come up within a day or so; that if Lee would only remain in Richmond another fortnight, I could march up to Burkesville, when Lee would have to starve inside of his lines, or come out from his intrenchments and fight us on equal terms.
Both General Grant and myself supposed that one or the other of us would have to fight one more bloody battle, and that it would be the last. Mr. Lincoln exclaimed, more than once, that there had been blood enough shed, and asked us if another battle could not be avoided. I remember well to have said that we could not control that event; that this necessarily rested with our enemy; and I inferred that both Jeff. Davis and General Lee would be forced to fight one more desperate and bloody battle. I rather supposed it would fall on me, somewhere near Raleigh; and General Grant added that, if Lee would only wait a few more days, he would have his army so disposed that if the enemy should abandon Richmond, and attempt to make junction with General Jos. Johnston in North Carolina, he (General Grant) would be on his heels. Mr. Lincoln more than once expressed uneasiness that I was not with my army at Goldsboro', when I again assured him that General Schofield was fully competent to command in my absence; that I was going to start back that very day, and that Admiral Porter had kindly provided for me the steamer Bat, which he said was much swifter than my own vessel, the Russia. During this interview I inquired of the President if he was all ready for the end of the war. What was to be done with the rebel armies when defeated? And what should be done with the political leaders, such as Jeff. Davis, etc.? Should we allow them to escape, etc.? He said he was all ready; all he wanted of us was to defeat the opposing armies, and to get the men composing the Confederate armies back to their homes, at work on their farms and in their shops. As to Jeff. Davis, he was hardly at liberty to speak his mind fully, but intimated that he ought to clear out, "escape the country," only it would not do for him to say so openly. As usual, he illustrated his meaning by a story: Continue reading
Grant Plans His Attack
Grant, a failure all of his life except for war, marriage and his last valiant race with the Grim Reaper to finish his memoirs and provide for the financial security of his family; seemingly a dull plodder, but possessed of iron determination and an uncanny ability to never let the trees obscure the forest; happily married and a firm believer in God, but subject to bouts of depression, usually when his wife was absent, when he would grasp for the bottle; the shabby little man who won the greatest war in American history.
On March 24, 1865 Grant sent out his movement order for the Army of the Potomac and the Army of the James. Grant planned a vast move to the west to force Lee to come out of his entrenchments to avoid Grant outflanking him on his right. While this was going on, Sheridan would strike with the Union cavalry to sever the rail lines linking Richmond and Petersburg to the dwindling remainder of the Confederacy. Grant planned for the movement to begin on March 29, 1865, taking advantage of the good weather that had dried the roads. The Appomattox campaign was about to begin. Continue reading
Lincoln to City Point
Anyone looking at photographs of Lincoln in 1860 and 1865 can't help but see how much the War aged him. By March 1865 Grant thought that Lincoln could use some time away from Washington, and suggested to him that he visit Grant at his headquarters at City Point, Virginia on the James River. Lincoln readily agreed and on March 23, 1865 left for City Point, along with his wife and Tad. In his last month of life, he would spend eighteen days at City Point. Continue reading
March 25, 1865: Battle of Fort Stedman
On March 25, 1865, the Army of Northern Virginia embarked on its last offensive. Here is the account of John B. Gordon, who commanded the assault on Fort Stedman:
My troops stood in close column, ready for the hazardous rush upon Fort Stedman. While the fraternal dialogue in reference to drawing rations from the cornfield was progressing between the Union picket and the resourceful private at my side, the last of the obstructions in my front were removed, and I ordered the private to fire the signal for the assault. He pointed his rifle upward, with his finger on the trigger, but hesitated. His conscience seemed to get hold of him. He was going into the fearful charge, and he evidently did not feel disposed to go into eternity with the lie on his lips, although it might be a permissible war lie, by which he had thrown the Union picket off his guard. He evidently felt that it was hardly fair to take advantage of the generosity and soldierly sympathy of his foe, who had so magnanimously assured him that he would not be shot while drawing his rations from the little field of corn. His hesitation surprised me, and I again ordered :
"Fire your gun, sir." He at once called to his kind- hearted foe and said : " Hello, Yank ! Wake up ; we are going to shell the woods. Look out; we are coming." And with this effort to satisfy his conscience and even up accounts with the Yankee picket, he fired the shot and rushed forward in the darkness.
As the solitary signal shot rang out in the stillness, my alert pickets, who had crept close to the Union sentinels, sprang like sinewy Ajaxes upon them and prevented the discharge of a single alarm shot. Had these faithful Union sentinels been permitted to fire alarm guns, my dense columns, while rushing upon the fort, would have been torn into fragments by the heavy guns. Simultaneously with the seizing and silencing of the Federal sentinels, my stalwart axemen leaped over our breastworks, closely followed by the selected 300 and the packed column of infantry. Although it required but a few minutes to reach the Union works, those minutes were to me like hours of suspense and breathless anxiety ; but soon was heard the thud of the heavy axes as my brave fellows slashed down the Federal obstructions. The next moment the infantry sprang upon the Union breastworks and into the fort, overpowering the gunners before their destructive charges could be emptied into the mass of Confederates. They turned this captured artillery upon the flanking lines on each side of the fort, clearing the Union breastworks of their defenders for some distance in both directions. Up to this point, the success had exceeded my most sanguine expectations. We had taken Fort Stedman and a long line of breastworks on either side. We had captured nine heavy cannon, eleven mortars, nearly 1000 prisoners, including General McLaughlin, with the loss of less than half a dozen men. One of these fell upon the works, pierced through the body by a Federal bayonet, one of the few men thus killed in the four years of war. I was in the fort myself, and relieved General McLaughlin by assuming command of Fort Stedman.
Daylight was coming. Through the failure of the three guides, we had failed to occupy the three forts in the rear, and they were now filled with Federals. Our wretched railroad trains had broken down, and the troops who were coming to my aid did not reach me. The full light of the morning revealed the gathering forces of Grant and the great preponderance of his numbers. It was impossible for me to make further headway with my isolated corps, and General Lee directed me to withdraw. This was not easily accomplished. Foiled by the failure of the guides, deprived of the great bodies of infantry which Lee ordered to my support, I had necessarily stretched out my corps to occupy the intrenchments which we had captured. The other troops were expected to arrive and join in the
general advance. The breaking down of the trains and the non-arrival of these heavy supports left me to battle alone with Grant's gathering and overwhelming forces, and at the same time to draw in my own lines toward Fort Stedman. A consuming fire on both flanks and front during this withdrawal caused a heavy loss to my command. Continue reading
The Last Confederate Offensive
Few generals in American history have been as aggressive as Robert E. Lee. Faced with a hopeless military situation in March of 1865, he decided that he had no alternative but to launch an attack. His starving army was down to 50,000 men, and with the lines around Petersburg and Richmond so extensive, when Grant began to move with an army nearly three times the size of Lee's it did not take a military genius to realize that he would break Lee's lines. However, if Lee could break Grant's lines first, it might buy Lee time. Grant would perhaps consolidate his lines around the breakthrough and delay his Spring offensive. That might give General Joseph E. Johnston sufficient time to march up ahead of Sherman from North Carolina and link up with Lee. At that time Lee could attempt to defeat Sherman and then Grant seriatim. The plan relied far too much on hopes and wishes, but other than surrender, it was the best of the bleak options facing Lee.

The Crossroads of Our Being
Something for the weekend. The opening of the Civil War documentary, to the tune Ashokan Farewell, that premiered twenty-five years ago this September. As the 150th anniversary of the Civil War draws to a close, what strikes me most is the immensity of the conflict and the huge changes it wrought in American life. One can spend a lifetime studying this conflict as I have, and still find, almost daily, new pieces of information. Shelby Foote, and it took a gifted novelist I think to write an epic history worthy of this huge, sprawling event in American history, put it best: Continue reading
March 19, 1865: Battle of Bentonville Begins
The life of the Confederacy was ebbing fast, but it still had soldiers willing to fight for it, as was amply demonstrated at the battle of Bentonville, North Carolina, fought March 19-21, 1865.
Outnumbered 60,000 to 21,000, General Joseph Johnston's only hope of victory was to attack a portion of Sherman's army and defeat it. Moving on Goldsboro, Sherman had his army marching in two groups, a left wing under Major General Henry Slocum and a right wing under Major General O. O. Howard. On March 19, 1865, Slocum ran into the entrenched troops of Johnston. Thinking that he was opposed only by cavalry, Slocum attacked and was repulsed. In the afternoon Johnston attacked and was initially successful, routing two Union divisions. The fighting continued until midnight, with Union reinforcements stopping the Confederate attack, and the Confederates withdrawing to their lines.
On March 20, Howard joined Slocum and only light skirmishing occurred.
On March 21, Sherman stopped an attack which, in retrospect, he regretted stopping, since it might well have led to a general action which may have ended in the destruction of Johnston's force.
Johnston had been lucky and the Confederates had fought skillfully, but the results of the battle demonstrated the futility of fighting against a force that was so numerically superior. Johnston lost 2600 men, almost ten percent of his force, while Sherman had 1604 casualties which diminished his force almost not at all.
One of the Confederate casualties underlined the endless tragedies of the War. On the 21rst Willie Hardee, the 16 year old son of Confederate Lieutenant General William Hardee, was mortally wounded. His father had reluctantly agreed a few hours before his wounding to his son serving with the elite Eighth Texas Cavalry, known popularly as Terry's Texas Rangers, his son desperate to see action before the end of the War. Willie's death was mourned by General O.O. Howard who commanded Sherman's right wing and who had been a friend of Hardee at West Point and who had tutored Willie.
Here are Sherman's comments on the battle in his memoirs: Continue reading

Efficiency Of A Small Firm With The Firepower Of A Big Firm
Klein & Wilson is a small trial firm that has produced giant results, including a $26 million recovery for one client. Klein & Wilson's clients receive the same quality representation provided by large firms. Moreover, clients receive close personal attention and cost-efficiency not available in large firms.
Klein & Wilson is the firm of choice for sophisticated purchasers of legal services who want trial-tested experience for complex business litigation and legal malpractice disputes. Klein & Wilson's attorneys have extensive experience in business and commercial litigation, including contract disputes, partnership disputes, shareholder disputes, and LLC disputes; legal malpractice; real estate litigation, including lease disputes, real property disputes, and landlord-tenant disputes; and intellectual property disputes, including unfair competition and trade secrets, trademark infringement, and copyright infringement.
Advantages Of A Small Firm
Large firms provide substantial manpower to staff cases, and have overhead to match their size. This overhead results in higher costs to clients without better outcomes. The net result is that large firms often "over-lawyer" cases, at unnecessary expense to clients. At large firms, senior partners often pass important work off to junior partners who pass it off to younger, less-experienced associates. Klein & Wilson routinely sees opposing counsel send as many as three attorneys to court on routine matters, resulting in triple billing to the client. Overstaffing increases clients' legal fees and prevents a single attorney from having a comprehensive grasp of the case. As a case is passed from one lawyer to another, critical case issues inevitably fall through the cracks.
Klein & Wilson is discriminating as to which cases (and clients) it accepts because of the firm's dedication to excellence and attention to detail. Klein & Wilson assigns a single partner to supervise a matter from the first pleading until the verdict, ensuring the trial attorney is intimately familiar with every stage of the proceedings and legal fees are not wasted educating other lawyers. Despite being a small firm, Klein & Wilson has no difficulty keeping up with its larger competitors. In fact, some of the largest firms in California have complained they had trouble keeping up with Klein & Wilson. Klein & Wilson's Significant Case Results against large firms speak for themselves.
Use Of Modern Technology
Klein & Wilson's attorneys are experts in the use of cutting edge technology during discovery and at trial. Klein & Wilson routinely makes trials more interesting by using multimedia, including computerized document and video retrieval, videotaped depositions, and animation. Klein & Wilson has such a prominent reputation in the area of modern trial tactics, that many of the largest law firms in the country, as well as the Los Angeles District Attorney's office, the Ventura County District Attorney's office, and leading trial organizations, asked Klein & Wilson to present seminars on how to use technology at trial. Technology is an important component of Klein & Wilson's trial success.
Early Evaluation Of Settlement And Litigation Strategy
Because litigation is expensive, clients should explore settlement early and imaginatively. Unfortunately, many litigants explore settlement only after expensive discovery has been completed, and the trial date is rapidly approaching. Often, the amount of legal fees clients incur by the time of trial is so high, settlement becomes difficult. Klein & Wilson recognizes the best time to settle a case is at the outset, before clients incur substantial legal fees.
Klein & Wilson spends time at the beginning of the case formulating a careful litigation strategy that expedites settlement, if possible. If the case cannot be settled, this strategy serves as a road map to prepare the case for trial at the lowest possible cost.
Most "litigators" are not trial veterans and take vast amounts of expensive and unnecessary discovery while overlooking crucial evidence. As a matter of course, Klein & Wilson spends substantial time with the client at the outset of the case to make sure only appropriate discovery is completed. Throughout the litigation process, Klein & Wilson keeps clients informed of the case status, seeking authority for each substantial expenditure. As a result of this communication, clients can make informed decisions regarding strategy and settlement. While Klein & Wilson cannot guarantee success in every matter, the firm can guarantee its clients receive effective and affordable representation.

O Were My Love Yon Lilac Fair - Poem by Robert Burns
O WERE my Love yon lilac fair,
Wi' purple blossoms to the spring,
And I a bird to shelter there,
When wearied on my little wing;
How I wad mourn when it was torn
By autumn wild and winter rude!
But I wad sing on wanton wing
When youthfu' May its bloom renew'd.
O gin my Love were yon red rose
That grows upon the castle wa',
And I mysel a drap o' dew,
Into her bonnie breast to fa';
O there, beyond expression blest,
I'd feast on beauty a' the night;
Seal'd on her silk-saft faulds to rest,
Till fley'd awa' by Phoebus' light.

Chitosan Modification and Pharmaceutical/Biomedical Applications
AbstractChitosan has received much attention as a functional biopolymer for diverse applications, especially in pharmaceutics and medicine. Our recent efforts focused on the chemical and biological modification of chitosan in order to increase its solubility in aqueous solutions and absorbability in the in vivo system, thus for a better use of chitosan. This review summarizes chitosan modification and its pharmaceutical/biomedical applications based on our achievements as well as the domestic and overseas developments: (1) enzymatic preparation of low molecular weight chitosans/chitooligosaccharides with their hypocholesterolemic and immuno-modulating effects; (2) the effects of chitin, chitosan and their derivatives on blood hemostasis; and (3) synthesis of a non-toxic ion ligand—D-Glucosaminic acid from Oxidation of D-Glucosamine for cancer and diabetes therapy.

Some folks think I remember too much. I'm known as the possessor of "useless information." But, then again sometimes it comes in handy.
When the name Jeff Kidder came up as a possible successor to Troy Young as Taylor County High School head boys' basketball coach, the information churn began to flow.
Although nothing is official, there almost certainly be realignment in Kentucky high school basketball before the 2013-14 season.
Movement has to take place since Heath, Lone Oak and Reidland will merge into McCracken County in 2013, leaving only two teams in that district and only 14 in the First Region. The Second and Third Regions are already one school short of the really-needed 16 to have four four-team districts.
Here's one solution, but don't even believe the new realignment will even look close to this.

Eastman Tritan™ copolyester, launched in October 2007, Tritan is engineered to be better. Better than glass. Better than stainless. Better than any other plastic. And Tritan is free of bisphenol A (BPA). Products made with Tritan copolyesters are clear, durable, safe and stylish. And we aren't the only ones making that claim — the superiority of Tritan has been clearly proven by third-party labs and its quality is loved by customers and consumers alike.
Designers and process engineers appreciate the high-performance characteristics of Tritan beyond its many food-ware applications. Tritan is a good material for everything from consumer electronics and large appliances to medical devices and packaging.
For design engineers, Tritan offers viable alternatives unrestricted by compromise. In many applications it can be a drop-in replacement for polycarbonate or other like materials: no call for expensive retooling, no need for down-time. In fact, Tritan often results in shorter cycle times, fewer manufacturing stages and makes intricate designs possible.

Harris Teeter Farmers Market Premieres Today
Freshness Verified By Our Green Thumb Experts
As of October 1, 2003, Harris Teeter is proud to premiere the Harris Teeter Farmers Market. Customers will see the difference in our stores and experience the difference with our new Green Thumb Experts.
Gone are the days of "the produce department" - instead, at Harris Teeter we are inviting our customers to shop the Harris Teeter Farmers Market featuring fresh-from-the-farm goodness ripe and ready-to-eat, year round.
Harris Teeter Farmer's Market produce means:
Freshness verified by our Green Thumb Experts,
All produce is carefully selected to meet our high standards,
Our fruits will be consistently sweet, ripe, and ready to eat, and
Harris Teeter also pledges to have the widest variety of fruits and vegetables the world has to offer. Some of them are grown right here in our own back yard.
Harris Teeter works with farmers to get top-quality produce to our stores and on your table fast and fresh. Whether it's Vidalia onions from Tombs County, GA, squash and cucumbers from Cook Farms in Monroe, NC, or a variety of greens from Clinton Sease Farms in Lexington, SC every one of our 140 stores has the freshest produce - guaranteed.
Supporting local family farms that hand pick their best produce for Harris Teeter means quality for our customers. And at Harris Teeter we are serious about quality.
"We have specific standards for every produce item and we only buy from growers willing to meet those high standards," says Mark Hilton, Vice President of Produce and Floral. "We insist on larger fruit because it stays fresher, longer," he adds.
When produce arrives, Harris Teeter Green Thumb Experts at the distribution center perform careful inspections using specialized equipment to test many fruits for size and sweetness, something other supermarkets don't always do. We want our fruit to taste great. If it's not perfect -we send it back.
From the fields to the stores...We really do have Green Thumbs.
Beginning October 1, 2003, customers will be greeted by our Green Thumb Experts in the Farmers Market area of our stores. Our new Green Thumb Experts are carefully trained and certified to help our shoppers select the best produce.
They will be on hand to answer questions about an item's nutritional content, help customers learn how to store it properly at home, explain the difference in varieties, and even suggest a few ways they can cook it up for the whole family to enjoy.
The good news is that incorporating consistent amounts of fruits and vegetables in your diet can help prevent many of our nation's deadliest and debilitating diseases. The bad news is that less than 75 percent of Americans eat the recommended five servings of fruits and vegetables every day.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Americans eat the most fruit in the summer. During the winter, fruit consumption slips to a very low 44 percent, far below what the Food Pyramid recommends. At Harris Teeter we want to help families eat better and smarter ¡V
Harris Teeter carries over 600 fresh produce items each and every day. No matter what time of year, customers can find the widest variety of fresh, top-quality produce at our Harris Teeter's Farmers Market.

Using Indicators
Reading the Signs and Signals
Williams Accumulation/Distribution (AD)
Larry Williams created this indicator in an attempt to measure market pressures. It specifically looks for a difference in price and measures it through market sentiment and strength. The key is to look for strong differences between what the market does and what the indicator does. Looking for substantial divergence from the AD index versus the underlying chart is the key to future price direction.
The main thing to look for is a difference between the AD and the market trend. If a market were to make a matching or lower low, or a matching or higher high and the AD fails to follow the market trend, this is divergence. Divergence implies that a reversal in the dominant trend may be near.
A series of lower lows would read as a decreasing AD. The pattern created by the AD and the differences in the chart are what the trader looks for. Divergence, or a difference from the pattern, is what you want to see. For example, if the market continues to march to higher territory and the AD follows by doing the same, then there is no divergence. However, if the market makes several new highs but the AD fails to make new highs, it is a warning signal of a market about to reverse direction.
The AD index is computed several different ways. Some computations normalize the index, while others add extra smoothing factors through the use of moving averages.
The first comparison checks for accumulation. (Is the current close higher than the previous close?) If the market is accumulating, subtract the difference between current close and low. Add the difference to the Accumulation/Distribution Index. Traders perceive an undervalued market and they buy.
If Closet > Closet-1 then ADt = ADt-1 + (Closet - Lowt)
The second comparison checks for no change in price. If correct, the AD index does not change.
If Closet = Closet-1 then ADt = ADt-1
The last and final comparison checks for a down market. It looks for the current close below previous close. If it's correct, the market is distributing. The software first computes the difference between current high and close. Then it subtracts that difference from the AD index. This measures market distribution. Traders perceive an overvalued market and are selling.
If Closet < Closet-1 then ADt = ADt-1 - (Hight - Closet)
ADt: The accumulation/distribution index for the current
ADt-1: The accumulation/distribution index for the previous period.
Closet: The closing price for the current interval.
Closet-1: The closing price for the previous interval.
Hight: The true high price for the current interval (current high or previous close).
Lowt: The true low price for the current interval (current low or previous close).
Example of the Williams AD in the Indicator Window
Open the Preferences Tab in your Control Panel. Select the AD quick link at the right of the indicator window. (Once you click on the chart, the Preference tab will go back to chart settings.)
1. Restore Settings: TNT Default will change your settings back to the original software settings. My Default will change current settings to your personalized default settings. Apply To All Charts will apply your selected settings on all open charts. Save As My Default will save your current personal settings.
2. AD: Change the color, line style, and line thickness of the Accumulation and Distribution line in the Indicator Window.
3. ADMA: Change the color, line style, and line thickness of the Accumulation/Distribution Moving Average line in the Indicator Window.
4. Show ADMA: Uncheck this box to hide the ADMA line. When the box is checked, specify the number of days used in calculating the ADMA Indicator. The default number is 28 days.
5. Thresholds: Gives you the option of displaying four threshold lines, which can be displayed as a value or a percentage in the Indicator Window. You also have the option to change the color of the threshold line.
6. Buy/Sell Arrows: You have the option to display buy/sell arrows on your chart according to the indicator. Click the arrow to view Displayed or Not Displayed. You also have the option to change the color of the buy/sell arrows.

Quick GuideWomen's Health: A Visual Guide to Uterine Fibroids
What are the complications of uterine fibroids?
Fibroids themselves do not require treatment, but women with fibroids can develop complications as a result of fibroids, including bleeding and pelvic pain (as discussed previously). It is because of symptoms that doctors may suggest treatment for a fibroid. Only 20% to 50% of women with fibroids have symptoms due to the condition, primarily bleeding or pelvic pressure.
In addition to bleeding and pelvic pressure, fibroids can cause recurrent miscarriage, infertility, premature labor, and labor complications. However, a substantial majority of women with fibroids are able to have successful pregnancies unless the uterine cavity is unusually distorted.
What is adenomyosis?
Adenomyosis is the growth of uterine tissue from one particular layer of the uterus (the endometrial glands from the lining tissue of the uterus) into the "wrong" layer (the muscle layer, called the myometrium). It is a benign condition, but it can enlarge the uterus, clinically appearing as a growth. Adenomyosis is similar to endometriosis, which is the growth of cells similar to those that form the inside of the uterus (endometrial cells), in a location outside of the uterus. In adenomyosis, the abnormal growth of endometrial cells occurs within the muscular layer of the uterus itself rather than outside the uterus.
The cause of adenomyosis is not well understood. Some researchers believe that previous surgeries on the uterus (including Cesarean births) can cause the endometrial (uterine lining) cells to spread and grow in an abnormal location (the muscular layer of the uterine wall). Another possibility is that adenomyosis arises from tissues in the uterine wall itself that may have been deposited there during development of the uterus.
Adenomyosis is more common after childbirth.
What are the symptoms of adenomyosis and what does it look like?
Adenomyosis may not produce any symptoms, although some women may experience:
- Excessive bleeding
- Painful menstrual periods
- Bleeding between periods

Tom Wesselmann Biography
Tom Wesselmann was born in Cincinnati / Ohio on 23 February 1931. Between 1945 and 1951 he studied at the Hiram College in Ohio before studying psychology at Cincinnati university. One year later he was called up for military service due to the Korea war. Being discontented with his situation he began to draw cartoons at that time.
In 1954 he resumed his studies and apart from this he attended the art academy. He moved to New York and attends Cooper Union School for Arts and Architecture in 1956. He earned his living by working as a cartoonist for several journals and magazines as well as by teaching at a highschool in Brooklyn. At the end of the fifties a series of collages in small format were created being regarded as precursors of the later series "Great American Nudes" and "Still life" in big format.
Out of these collages he developed first nude depictions in 1960. His first single exhibition took place at the Tanager Gallery in New York in 1961. One year later he participated in the group exhibition "New Realists" at the Sidney Janis Gallery, his international career with numerous exhibitions started off. The same year his first assemblages with the title "Still Life" came into existence. In 1963 Tom Wesselmann married his girl-friend and fellow student Claire Selley, who also was his most important model. He began a series of "Bathtub Collages".
In 1966 the first of many one-man shows took place at the Janis Gallery. In 1964 Tom Wesselmann began with further series, e.g. "Bedroom Paintings", "Seascapes" and "Smokers", which he continued until the early 1980s.
In 1980 he published a treatise about his artistic development under the pseudonym Slim Stealingworth. In 1983 first "Metal Works" were produced, which were based on the artist's drawings and sketches and which are still in the centre of the artist's interest. In 1994 a comprehensive retrospective took place at the Kunsthalle in Tübingen.
Tom Wesselmann died in New York on 17 December 2004. His choice of trivial motifs, thier monumentalisation, reduction to stereotypes, sexual embelematic as well as the use of bright colours made Tom Wesselmann a co-founder of the American Pop-Art during the 1960s.

Delhi-based Zumbl Services Pvt Ltd, which provides Zumbl.com, a platform that enables members to chat with strangers having similar interests and passions, has bagged $20,000 (Rs 12 lakh) from Snapdeal co-founders Kunal Bahl and Rohit Bansal, its founder Abhishek Gupta told VCCircle.
Founded in 2011 by IIT Delhi students Gupta (21) and Saurabh Kumar (19), Zumbl has more than 3 million registered users across 189 countries using the platform, with the majority coming from India and the US. The firm was incubated at Digital Media Zone, Toronto. Both the founders had dropped out from their college for a semester to join the incubation in Toronto during August-November 2012. Post incubation, they returned to India to continue their education. They are still pursuing their graduation in Computer Science at IIT Delhi.
"Bahl and Bansal put in $10,000 (Rs 6 lakh) each. The money went towards hiring talent. We are now a team of eight, including the founders," Gupta said.
How Zumbl works
You need to login into Zumbl using your Google or Facebook credentials. Then add your interests, hobbies, etc in the corresponding columns. Zumbl matches you with strangers who share common interests with you. During the chat, both parties can tag each other with tags like nerdy, sassy, funny etc. As the chat goes on, Zumbl will decorate your avatar with badges to avoid profanity and reduce the number of fake profiles.
Zumbl also uses 'sentiment mining' technology to detect the mood of members from the chats and reflect the same in form of animation of their avatar. It is easy to share your interests with others, as you need to just enclose anything you wish to share in '< >'. For instance, if you enter '<wall climbing>' the phrase is indexed and the relevant media/videos from the web are shared immediately with the chatmate.
The startup has already launched the Android and iOS versions of Zumbl which together saw more than 46,000 downloads so far.
A free app, Zumbl is looking to build a good user base for its app platforms before launching revenue models. "We are aggressively focusing on growth. We are doing targeted marketing for our first tier of countries that include India, the Philippines, the US and Canada. Rest of the countries are targeted effectively through our SEO and SEM," Gupta said.
As part of the incubation at Digital Media Zone, the firm received $20,000 (Rs 12 lakh). It also bagged $3,000 (Rs 1.7 lakh) after winning the Samsung Innovation Award 2012.
Although Zumbl offers a different user experience compared with other chat platforms, it is still competing with WhatsApp and WeChat, two of the leading chat apps. WhatsApp has already registered 100-500 million downloads, while WeChat saw 10-50 million downloads so far.

I have the same problem for a long time...
I also have a php gallery on my website which runs just as slow as wp. Sometime it is ok, mostly during the night, which takes 1-4 seconds to load. In the afternoon, however, my wp could take up to 40 seconds for the actual page to appear - meaning it's totally white and blank before the page appear. It loads fast after the page shows up though.
Can someone tell me if it is the same problem with you.
I suspect it's the server problem. I use globat with the most basic, cheapest plan.

Nicholas Mosse's Traditional Irish Spongeware
n Bennettsbridge in County Kilkenny an early sixteenth century flour mill stands by the River Nore with its ducks and swans and grassy banks strewn with meadow flours. Here, in 1985, local potter Nicholas Mosse set up a factory that now ships pieces hand made by local residents to buyers all over the world. Nicholas Mosse's traditional Irish pottery designs reflect the world around him, decorated with the scenery of rural Ireland. Patterns like Animal Landscape, Forget Me Not and the dainty new Clover bring a bit of Ireland everywhere they go.
Irish Pottery: Heritage
Irish spongeware is a type of folk pottery dating from the 19th century. Decoration is applied to a colored earthenware base with a sponge hand cut into an intricate design. At Nicholas Mosse Pottery, local artisans shape the simple forms by hand and fire and decorate them in the tradition of the plates and bowls used in old Irish cottages using waterpower from the Nore.
Nicholas Mosse
Nick Mosse has been fascinated by clay and its potential since childhood. He graduated from England's Harrow College of Art and worked as a journeyman in Scotland, in France and in Japan. In 1976 he came home to Bennettsbridge where he established a pottery in an old byre. The studio prospered, and by 1985 Mosse relocated it to the disused flour mill. The pottery now employs local residents to produced hand made pottery which is sold in all parts of the world.
Traditional Irish Spongeware
Every piece of the fine spongeware sold under the Nicholas Mosse name is still made by hand in the old mill at Bennettsbridge. Every item is shaped to reflect the forms of traditional Irish pottery, and the decorations are drawn from the countryside in which the artisans live. Patterns like Clematis, Old Rose and Wild Flower Meadow are inspired by the flora and fauna of Kilkenny. Even the delightful holiday pattern with its border of holly seems to feature Reindeer with an Irish accent.
In addition to ceramics, table linens can now be had as a part of the Nicholas Mosse line. Made with the same care as the spongeware, these tablecloths, napkins, mats and assorted kitchen linens are the perfect complement to the dinnerware collections. Like every Nicholas Mosse product, they bring the grace and beauty of Ireland to homes no matter where they lie.
