Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of War History, 1861-1865, Vol. 5: Papers Prepared for the Commandery of the State of Ohio, Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States, 1896-1903 The wt of March, 1857, we took the steamer from St. Louis to Fort Leavenworth. On reaching there we found the department commanded by General W. H. Harney. The post was commanded by Colonel E. V. Sumner, of the First U. S. Cavalry. The Sixth Infantry, lately stationed at Fort Thomas, was also there. A few days afterwards the Fifth and Tenth Infantry arrived at the post, orders having been published for the Fifth, Tenth, and Battery B, Fourth Artillery, to get ready to start upon the expedition to Utah. Captain Stewart Van Vliet, of the Quartermaster Depart ment, arrived later, having been ordered to proceed to Salt Lake City in advance Of the expedition. He had been given full authority to purchase all the lumber and everything requisite for that command. Contracts were also given out for transporting the supplies, the price being twenty two cents per pound. From the day the order was issued we were kept as busy as could be, drawing horses, breaking them to harness, receiving ammunition, quartermaster sup plies, and drilling recruits, of which we had received eighty five after reaching Fort Leavenworth.

By Andrew H1ckenlooper, Late Lieutenant Colonel and A. I. G., U. S. V.; Brevet Brigadier General U. S. V. PART II.--GENERAL REVIEW OF REPORTS OF THE BATTLE. It is not my purpose to rehearse all the multitudinous details of that memorable and sanguinary struggle, of which General Grant says in his Century article: "The battle of Shiloh, or Pittsburg Landing, fought on Sunday, April 6th, has been perhaps less, or, to state the case more accurately, more persistently misunderstood, than any other engagement between National and Confederate troops during the entire rebellion,"-- but simply to supply reliable data bearing upon the particular object I have in view, which is to see that Prentiss' Sixth Division is fairly given credit not only for what it did, but also for what it prevented the Confederates from doing, and thus defend the reputation of the commanders, officers and men of a division in which I feel an intense interest and a personal pride. I am fully aware that I will subject myself to criticism for incidentally criticising those who subsequently demonstrated their great military ability, and thus endeared their memories not only to every soldier of the Army of the Tennessee, but to every loyal citizen of our country. It certainly would be personally more agreeable could I consistently omit from this review every incident that may have a tendency to mar the harmony of such relationship, rather than call attention to the disregard of the foundation principles of military science which imperiled the safety of an army, came within an ace of causing the loss of a great battle, and the transfer of the scene of active hostilities from the banks of the Tennessee to the Ohio River. But truthfulness is the gem that...

BLOCK-HOUSES FOR RAILROAD DEFENSE IN THE DEPARTMENT OF THE CUMBERLAND. BY LIEUTENANT-COLONEL W. E. MERRILL, Corps of Engineers, U. 8. A.; late Colonel First U. S. V. V. Engineers and Chief Engineer Army Cumberland. The peculiarities of the country in which the Army of the Cumberland campaigned, developed novel modifications of many of the engineering appliances in general use by all fully equipped armies, and some of these are deserving of record in the War Papers of Loyal Legion, a depository of military experience which will doubtless, ultimately, take its rightful place among the valued storehouses of information whence future historians will draw those details of military operations that are unretwded in the more formal official reports. In the present article, I will briefly call attention to the question of railroad defense in time of war, a question that is yearly becoming more important, as railroad lines increase in length and number, and one that was practically novel at the outbreak of our great civil war. BLOCK-HOUSES FOR RAILROAD DEFENSE. Among all the American armies that fought in the long civil war, the Army of the Cumberland was exceptional in being the only one that, from the beginning to the end of its career, fought exclusively along lines of railroad, was supplied wholly by railroad, had its depots at prominent railroad centers, fought for the possession of the railroad centers of the enemy, and in general was compelled to adapt its strategy and its tactics to the novel conditions imposed by the invention of railroads, and the total change in methods of transportation that had occurred since the great Napoleonic wars, from whose records students of the military art had hitherto derived their knowledge.
