In another part of this issue will be found
II letter written by Maj.-Gen. J.. N. Schofleld
md addressed to tho Socfety of tho Army Of
the Cumberland, in which the writer asserts
Ills clui,n to the Whole credit for the battle
of Franklin and to most OF tho honor Of the
Nashville cafhpnIgn. 1t Is impossible to
characterize this letter properly except rs MI
attempt to rob tho heroic Thomas Of his
1a1lrels. If there were basis OF fact for 1t,
Gcn. Scllofleld should have permitted an.
othor hand to rewrlto history In his interest.
a limited sense Of 1nottesty md delicacy
would have dictated such d course. But we
do not believe the records or the testimony
Of tho officers In either arlny will substan-
tiato Scholeltls claim, however nlnde or by
whomsoever asserted. Ile preten1s ~ that
tho battle Of franklin WIS fought by
Him independently and with careful pre-
meditation; aud [2) that he could
haye superseded Thomas before the battle Of
Nashville. but magnRnlWOusly chose to snc-
rifico Ills own ambition for the sake Of his
commanding officer. The truth is that Scho-
field prec1pItated the battle Of franklin by
his own laundering folly and dfsobedlence
| OF orders, and thereby placed Thomas whole
army iii a position Of extreme peril, from
which he was only able to extricate 1t by q
lucky accident. As to the mngnanimons
refusal of Schotie'd tn deprfyo Thomas OF
his command, VIC believe the records will
show that he constantly intrigued to that end
and was nearly successful. These arc points,
however, which will DO more fully devel
opctl In tho discussion that Schofelds self
iaudatory paper must inevitably provoke
Ttc letter, though tlated Sept IL, 1880, In:
mover been published before. 1t was wrltte1
to be read Mt the Inst annual meeting Of tn
Society Of tile Army OF the Cumber
land, but was "acc!dentally" withheld
Those officers who wero aware Of Its con
tents, and who cherished solno regard 70
tho reputation Of Gen. Thomas md Gen
Scsohcitl, hoped that tho latter Wien give
time for reelection might reconsider his IN
tent1on to asaall the memory Of Ills dea
commander. But le has since caused tn
letter to be published for private circulation
md is fixed iii his determination to hive
read before tho Society ut its approachln
reunion. Thore can be no good reasol
therefore, for withholding 1t longer from til
public; and TIE TF1nuSE submits 1t to tllos
conversant with the faots In tho hope th1
; they may be nble to shed some light upon Il
contents antl settle the historical question
. inyOlyett decisiycly QUO way or the other.
