Editor oftae Jouraal:-My attention
has been called to an editorial article in
the pitlshurg Dispatch Of Friday, under
the caption Of the skneeling story" in
which il il stated that the editor has been
requested to ask, by one who was through
the war, ''if the Cameron Guards of Phila-
delphia were not while on main guard at
Jaispa,l obliged 10 kneel to the Host car
ricd il Catholic procession, and this un-
der general order issued prerious TO gen.
eral order No. 297.''
As the Capt. Naylor named in this in-
qairy, | am asked what have to say upon
the subject, and wether General Scott ever
issued an order such as above Indicated.
Ny reply il. there ras aerer such gen
eral order No such order was ever made
knowu to the army. My company never
was called upon to obey such order, or any
command purporiing to be founded on such
order. My company never did kneei to
the procession of the ''Host," either by OBJ
| legation or otherwise. Gen. Scott never
issued an order imposing any such obiiga-
tion, nor one that would afford any pretext
or excuse to any officer under him, for is
suing such an order, or imposing such an
ohligation The whole thing is a fabrica-
lion, and is at wnr with that large, intelli-
gent spirit Of charity, SO broadly consider
ate Of the rights and sensbili,ies Of all, 50
