is IN good taste or profitable to agitate
such questions now, when most Of the

every one who particlp ated il affairs at

I do not remember ths dates and have
not now access to the papers to refresh
my recollection. and while recogniize the
fact that my testimony will not settle
the question as to who was in com nand
Of that expedition, I do not think il
worth quarreling over. Whether Maj.
Brown or Maj. Grant gave orders as to
what was to be done and where to camp,
they showed very poor Judgment and
camped both nights where the troops
were at the mercy Of an attacking foe
A.sslittle better Judgment in selecting :
camping ground might have made il
more pleasant at Birch Coulie the next
day. But to my recollections:
