@ General Marcus j. Wright of the Con-
fedcrate Records division OF the WA
Department, has been for long period
and lie has at last completed his work.
lie believes 1t to be correct, or very
nearly SO, but he is perfectly willing to
accept corrections, indeed, he would be
glad to have ex-Confederate soldiers
transmit information relating to general
Officers Of the Confederacy, whose names
do not appear In this list, and to correct
K any inaccuracies which do appear.

years have elapsed since the fall OF the
\ Confederac y there has never before been
4 complete list of the general officers OF 4

Il s, work OF great magnitude to compile
. the list printed below. General Wright
has had to write hundreds Of letters to
old soldiers and others located IN all Sc c.
\ 1ions OF the country and has to make
~ researches Of other character In order 10
obtain the data for the roster. 5
