G.T. Beauregard Bids Farewell to His Army of the Potomac Whom He Led at Bull Run — ”…I cannot quit you without…deep anxiety, in the moment of our country’s trials and dangers…”

Civil War Confederate General G.T. Beauregard autograph manuscript signed, leaving his Army of the Potomac, the first established Army of the Confederacy whom Beauregard — the Confederacy’s first Brigadier General — led at First Bull Run. Having been transferred to the Army of the Tennessee, Beauregard writes from “Head Quarters 1st Corps A of P Near Centreville” on 30 January 1862: “…You are now undergoing the severest trial of a soldier’s life…My faith in your patriotism, your devotion and determination, and in your high soldierly qualities is so great, that I shall rest assured you will pass through the ordeal resolutely…Still, I cannot quit you without…deep anxiety, in the moment of our country’s trials and dangers…[T]his is no time for the army of the Potomac – the men of Manassas – to stack their arms and quit…To the army of Shenandoah, I desire to return my thanks for their assistance, last July, their timely, decisive arrival…Those…not so fortunate as yet to have been with us in conflict with our enemy, I leave with all confidence that on occasion they will show themselves fit comrades for the men of Manassas, Bull Run, and Ball’s Bluff…” G.T. Beauregard / Gen’l Com’dg”. 2pp. measures 8″ x 12.5″. Foxing, toning minor separation at folds and paper loss to corners. Very good condition.

General William Sherman Autograph on His Civil War Dated February 1865 Surprisingly Racist Letter, Well After the Emancipation Proclamation, That He Is Opposed ”to the policy of arming negroes…”

General William Sherman autograph letter signed: ”W.T. Sherman / M.G.” on Military Division of the Mississippi Headquarters stationery. In a letter datelined ”In the Field, 4 miles S of Hickory Hill, 1 February 1865”, the infamous Civil War figure writes to General John Gray Foster: ”…I cannot modify my orders relative to General Saxton having the charge of recruiting blacks…I think the impression at Washington is that both you and I are inimical to the policy of arming negroes, and all know that Saxton is not, and his appointment reconciles that difficulty. If anything serious occurs correspond directly with Mr. Stanton…Let Grant know I am in motion, and telegraph to Easton that if Slocum has to wait for provisions it will be dead loss [sic], as we are eating up ours. Let Hatch continually feel the Salkehatchie, and the moment the enemy lets go, get the railroad broken back to the Edisto…” By this time in the war, approximately 10% of Union regiments were composed of black soldiers, and public opinion, including that held by officers and soldiers, had accepted the concept of arming former slaves in the war effort. This letter clearly shows that General Sherman was one of the remaining hold-outs in his opposition. Written in pencil, single page measures 7.75″ x 9.75″. Near fine.  Sold for $9,582.
