cruel rebellion is waging against the d.

that in the midst of the sacrifices and the
struggles which the nation is making for its

made this Board their almoner are still able

have experienced no other embarrassment than
that which arises from the success and progress
of their work, outstripping the progress OF
missionary zeal and self.denial in the churches
that have sent them.

GENERAL ORDER NO 90


officers and Soldiers of the goth Army Corps
An order will soon reach you consolidating
your gallant regiments, brigades and divisions
with the Dist corps. With that order am re-
ieved from command in this army, and directed
to report at indianapolis, Indiana, there to ap-
pear before court of inquiry.
After being relieved from command, could
ask no greater favor of the War Depar ment
than a thorough investigation of my conduct
during the two memorable days of Chica-
manga, for do not fear the ISSUE My great
regret will be the breaking up OF the glorious
associations formed after so long service in
the Army Of the Cumberland. and the bidding
farewell to the gallant officers and soldiers OF
this corps
You will have new corps and division COM
manders; to them as you have at all times to
me, yield obedience. Give them additional
evidences Of your discipline. Zeal and patr OF
ism, in our cause; and never lay down your
arms until the unhOy rebellion is crushed, the
cured that will allow you to return to your
homes and firesides.
You have been slandered and maligned by
news scribblers, who, unfortunately in our
country mould the public mind. Official re-
ports will do you justice before the world.
return my thanks to every officer and sol.
dier of this corps, for his gallanLry in action
and his hearty cooperation and devotion to
duty.
With this I leave you. and my earnest pray
ers ever will be, that God may prosper you as
Il corps, and Il. individuals and ever give you
victory when struggling for Your nation and
glorious flag. A. MCD. McCOOK,
