The National tribune., 1884-10-02
-------------e e------------------
Gen. John Z. REYNOLDS.

To THE EDITOR: In THE NATIONAL TRIB-
UNE of the 11th ult. an article by Carleton y
on the Burnside campaign contains some i'm
portant omissions and misstatements, doing
injustice to gallant officer, who is not here to
correct them.
In speaking of the attack of the First Corps
on Lees rear at Fredericksburg the name of
the officer in command of that corps is ignored,
and the reader is given to understand that to
Gen. Meade, commanding the Third Division
OF the First Corps, alone is due the credit of
making and leading that attack.
While not wishing to detract one iota from
the well-earned fame of Gen. Meade, the writer
of this desires to say that the attack was made
under the personal direction of Gen. John F.
Reynolds, the commanding officer of the First
Corps. quote from the Comte de Paris's Civil
War in America" vol. 1, page 5S3: Frank
lin opened the battle as soon as he received
Burnside's instructions. He ordered Reynolds
to take Meade's Division and attack the posi-
tion indicated" To those who have served
under Gen. Reynolds or, indeed, to any who
have the slightest knowledge of his conduct
in action, it is unnecessary to say that he was
always to be found at the head of his COM
mand, and also led his charges in person; and,
further, he stated to the writer of this article
that he was at the head of that attack and
issued all the orders upon that occasion, aud if
the attack had been properly supported the
battle of Fredericksburg would have had a
very different result.
Believing it. is not your intention that in
justice should be done to any officer, and that
incorrect statements should go forth to the
public, / ask the favor of a space in your col
umns for this article.-JUsTITIA.
