But. while Leo was very earnestly opposed
to secession. he had been educated in support
Of the doctrine Of the sovereignty Of the
State and Of tho obedience Of tho citizen to
the State as paramount to obedience to the
National Government.
Remained With State Forces
Until Richmond Became Capital
One feature Of tho military record OF
General Leo I have never seen discussed in
any OF the histories Of the war. Lee on
more than one occasion declared his pur-
pose never to draw his sword except IN
defense Of the State whose sovereignty he
regarded as paramount. On the ed Of
April he left his beautiful home in Airing
ton, never to return to 1t, and on the fol-
lowing day he was appointed by the State
authorities Major General, with chief COM
mand Of the Virginia State forces. He did
not enter the military service of the Con-
federacy, but remained in Of the
State forces until the Confederate capital
was moved to Richmond, and the State
forces were Incorporated into the Southern
Army. He conducted a campaign in the
western part Of Virginia, without impor-
tant achievement, and he was called to
Richmond by President Davis as chief mill
tary cnicer and adviser in the Confederate
capital.
It was not By accident, nor by any de-
sire OF President Davis to keep 50 accom-

was detained in Richmond. It was well
known to all that Lees purpose was not to
engage in any war beyond the defense of
his native State. and / have good reason to
believe that he refused active service In the
field be ause 1t might require him to go
beyond the lines of his State. His oldest
ION. General G. w. P. Gusts Lee, who had
resigned from the army with his father,
was equally positive in his declaration not
to be engaged in any war except in defense
Of Virginia. and for that reason he was not
in field duty
Maryland Movement Not Accented
as Best Strategic Course.
The movement into Maryland was not ac-
cepted as a wise strategic movement from a
military standpoint. but 1t was dictated by
the general belief In the South that the in
vasion Of Maryland by Lees army would
arouse the people of that State to join the
secession movement. and for that reason.
and that only, LIE crossed the Potomac in
1852. He did not enter Maryland to make
war on the people of that State. but he
hoped by that movement to give MARYLAND
an opportunity to assert herself as a State
Of the Confederacy. believing that, the peo-
pie Of Maryland desired to do SO. In that
Lee discovered that he was mistaken, and
he fought the battle of Antietam because
It was necessary to reunite his army after
Jackson's movement to capture Harper's
Ferry, to enable him to return to Virginia
in safety. He occupied a strong position at
Antietam, from which Mcclellan, with an
army outnumbering Lees by one-third, had
failed to dislodge him One of the bloodiest
battles Of the war was there fought, re-
sulting in a desperate struggle from s
o'clock in the morning until sunset, each
army holding its position. Lee waited n
day after the battle for Mcclellan to renew
the attack. and, finding that he could
move with safety. he left his position dur
Ing the night and crossed the Potomac into
