complete rout of Buffers army. But
sad to relate, Whiting failed utterly
to carry out his part of the plan as
set out in the order have quoted. His
troops were as eager to go forward
and crush or capture the demoralized
and badly beaten enemy that was
passing headlonl right in hearing of
them, as any veteran patriots could be,
but for some unknown and unexplain-
able reason Whiting failed to give the
orders.
The plan of battle was faultless, and
had General Beauregard's orders been
carried out Gen. Butler and his army
would have inevitably been captured
as was the intention of Gen. eBaure-
gard. The part of the program he
took upon himself, which was by far
the most important, was complete
success in every particular. Unfor-
tunately Buffers beaten and demoral-
lied army was permitted to reach its
base at Bermuda Hundreds thru the
failure of Whiting to execute the or
ders he had received, and thereby this
brilliant conception of rare military
genius was thwarted, and the fruits
OF a great victory lost. Gen. Grant
said few days after this fight, that
Beauregard had Butler and his army
bottled up at Bermuda Hundreds" /"
That about described the situation,
but If Whiting had carried out his
part of the plan of battle, instead of
being bottled up at Bermuda Hum

as would have been left of it, would
have been "bottled up" in military
prisons. But looking back at it all
