Southern Historical Society Papers, Volume 34. (ed. Reverend J. William Jones), chapter 1.19 (search)
om this army my object has been to prevent an active and powerful column from being paralyzed by his presence. In a report written by General Averell, whilst stung by the order recalling him, he explained his delay at Rapidan Station on the ground that, All the intelligence we had been able to gather from a captured mail and from various other sources, went to show that the enemy believed the Army of the Potomac, was advancing over that line, and that Jackson was at Gordonsville with 25,000 men, to resist its approach. When he penned that sentence, he must have had well in mind among the intelligence which he had been able to gather, what young Wright had told him. The two Wrights, named in this communication, are still living (at Oldham's, Westmoreland county, Va.,) and retain vivid recollections of the incidents here recorded in their lives as soldiers. It is a pleasure to testify to their singular gallantry as soldiers and their substantial worth as citizens. G. W. Beale.
