To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
422 GRANT IN THE WILDERNESS our army, conforming to and covering its move ments and keeping watch and ward over its rear along the rivers which separated the hostile forces. In doing this we kept our horses constantly out of sight and showed only our dismounted men^ and field guns to the enemy, and this we did so effect ually and with such a show of force as to conceal our real movements till the army made its appear ance south of the Pamunkey some thirty miles away.
Although it was a period of... ceaseless labor and constant vigilance, it afforded me an opportunity to visit Grant s headquarters at Chesterfield Court House and to confer with him and his staff. All gave me a hearty welcome and received my reports of marching, fighting, and observation with a full appreciation of their importance. Both Grant and Eawlins were deeply interested in what I told them of Butler s opportunities and of the unfortunate dissensions which marred the efficiency of his army. Kawlins had received my letter by courier and I have never doubted that the personal reports made independently of each other by Sheridan and my self were influential in moving Grant a few days later to withdraw Smith s corps from Butler s col umn to reenforce his own army, between the Toto- potomoy and the Chickahominy.
