Some one asked him why the man that had taken the city of Mexico could not take Richmond. His reply was, "Because the very men that took me into Mexico were keep- ing me out of Richmond." 96 HALF-HOURS IN SOUTHEIfN HISTORY Speaking of the Mexican War and its heroes, Mr. Percy Greg, the English historian, says: "As the Americans ac- tually on the field were a little more than one to four, Buena Vista might well have been regarded as one of the most glorious names in the military history of the U...nited States.
It certainly entitles May, Davis, and Bragg to rank with the best and bravest soldiers of the Wars of Independence and of 1812 — with Greene, Putnam, and Harrison." The her- oism of Col. Jefferson Davis is frankly admitted by some Northern historians. Few writers of either section, how- ever, have done justice to Ringgold, May, Bragg, Quitman, and Tatnall, but have given the lion's share of the glory to Scott and Taylor, while General Stephen W. Kearney is rarely given either his full name or his initials.
