To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

ericksburg about this time, records m his diary a sorry impression of the state of gloom and discour- agement among the officers and soldiers. The colonel of a Michigan regiment in the course of conversation told him that the despondency of the officers and men was due mainly, in his opinion, to want of confidence in General Burnside. In reply to the question why they lacked confidence in him, the colonel answered, because he had no confi- dence in himself ; that Greneral Burnside had not only ...spoken of his incompetency, but had gone before the Congressional Committee and sworn to it. It was impossible to stop for a moment by a group of soldiers talking around the camp-fire without hearing enough to show that the command- ing general had lost the confidence of the rank and file of the army. Desertion prevailed to an alarm- ing extent ; the officers, who could not escape then- duty in that easy fashion, began to send in their resignations, accompanying them in some instances with insolent expressions against the Government for its conduct of the war.
