money was used to secure the surrender of

Colonel Robert N. Scott, U. S. A, in charge of
the preparation of the official history of the re-

know what papers are included in the War De-
partrnent archives, says positively that there is
nothing Whatever there that gives the least
shadow Of suspicion that General Pemberton
was in the least particle dishonest to the cause
he embraced

There was always jealousy Of Pemberton
among people, because we distrusted a
Northern man, just as Northern people distrust-

Fabius Stanley, aud General Thomas. When
he surrendered Vicksburg on the 4th of July
many of our people connected the date of his
surrender with treachery, and talked pretty
loudly of their opinions; but as tell you, those
who knew the man knew that he was true man
to our cause. General Joseph L. Johnston, who
had a quarrel with Pemherton, secuted the idea
of treachery. The gossip, if wrong, was ex-
tensive through our ARMY was then with
Braggs army-that Pemberton resigned his
commission as lieutenant general after his ex-
change was effected, and returned to his rank of
Northumberland of artillery in the regular
service of the confederate army, and N the final
campaign of 1864, and up to the surrender was
actively engaged about Richmond"
