1t is well known that among the books
offered for use in our schools are those
edited by Prof. Swinton and published
by Ivison, Brakeman & Co., N. Y. These
are known as the Swinton series and in.
cude books of nearly every grade and
subject taught in our schools.
In Gen. Grants Memoirs (vol. ii. pp
143 ct seq) the writer makes some as
founding statements concerning the same
Swinton. They are In brief these That
Swinton was introduced to the General
by Hon. E, B. Washburn and assurance
given that he was not correspondent
of any newspaper. That he merely
wished to observe and write history
after the war closed. That soon the
general found that secret orders appear
ed in Richmond papers three days after
they were given. That on the second
night of the battle of the Wilderness a
man was found concealed behind a
stump listening while Grant and Meade
were IN secret consultation, and this man
when drawn from his hiding proved to
be Swinton. That he (Gen. Grant, did
not know Of the man again, till at Cold
Harbor Meade informed him that Gen.
Burnside had arrested Swinton and or
dered him TO be shot that afternoon.
That he (Gran) ordered his release
and dismissal from the lines under pain
of punishment if he returned.
This in brief is the account. Persons
interested are requested to read Grants
story in detail.
Believing that very few have ever
connected.the Swinton Of text book fame
with this affair, wrote to the publishers
asking them what answer Prof. SwintoD
had to give to this arrangement,
They replied that they did not believe
it was true and that Prof. Swinton aud
his friends attributed the charges to Col.
Grant and Gen. Badeau. replied that
the charges were specific and in detail
and that all the persons interested were
mentioned by name, and asked il Prof.
Swinton had ever made reply if 30
wouldlhey kindly put me in the way to
find it. To this honest inquiry the pub
fishers answered that the books were Of
fered to the state on their merits, and if
the boards wish to judge them by any
other standard they were at liberty to do
80.
Here the matter rests. Laying the
matter before our state historian, Hon.
G.. g. Benedict, he writes me that while
be does not know specifically of the facts
he would yet believe Grant before any
man living, and that the matter should
be looked into.
II any one has information it will be
gladly received. ! certainly do not wish
to do any one an injury, nor have the
least prejudice in the matter. But sure
ly it is not sentiment to object to the
use of school books which come to us
with such an odor. 1t seems to me that
we owe it to the memory our great
general that we demand that this series
of charges be satisfactorily answered.
They involve character more than senti-
ment. We are not so poor in authors
that we are driven to the necessity OF
taking books for our children from the
hands OF a man with such charges rest
ing upon him and no satisfactory answer
given. II such answers can be given let
us hear it, but we have a right to de-
mand that the plaster be as large as the
wound. f. J. RANsIOw.
