"I SEND YOU THE HISTORY OF THE SECOND BRIDAGE CORP-
YOUR ATTENTION TO GENERAL WARRENS
REPORT OF BRISTOL STATION.
BY THE WAY, I THOUGHT YOU WERE IN COMMAND
OF THE ARTILLERY BRIGADE. I THINK WALKER
WAS ABOUT THE MOST NARROW MINDED OFFICER
IN THE 2nd CORPS AT BRISTOL STATION-
IN HIS MAP HE PLACES BROWN, ARNOLD, & BICHELLS-
BUT DOES NOT PLACE AMES-
AND IF I REMEMBER... WE WERE THERE!
GEN. GREG CAME TO YOU AND ASKED YOU TO DROP
A FEW SHELLS IN A CERTAIN PLACE... I THINK KETTLE.
AFTER DOING SO, HE CAME TO YOU AND ASKED WHAT KIND
OF PIECES YOU HAD... YOU TOLD HIM SMOOTH BORE,
WHEN HIS SAID, 'WELL CAPTAIN IF I COULD GET SUCH
SHOOTING DONE WITH SMOOTH BORE I WOULD
NEVER WANT TO HAVE A RIFLE.'"
