GEN. SCHOITELDS .MODESTY
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The Army of the Ohio was com
posed of troops largely from Ohio, In
diana, .Michigan, Illinois. Kentucky and
Tennessee. It had three commanders,
Miitor Generals A. K. Burnslde. Jolin ir.
Foster and J. M. Schorleld. Its campaigns
were the ones Into r;al Tennessee, wie At
lanta, the Hood and Into North Carolina.
General Schotield assumed command dur
ing the cold winter of ISW-bl. at Knox
vllle. East Tennessee. Its sufferings und
deprivations were only equalled but not
excelled by those of-Washlngton's army at
Valley Forge in the memorable campaign
of 1777-7S. Its greatest and most desper
ate contlict was that of Fmnklln, Tennes
see, Nov. 30, ISiil. when less than 15.1H0
men withstood and repulsed the continued
and unparalleled onsets of Hood's entire
army of more than 40,1)00 tried and cour
ageous veterans. This battle was the be
ginning of the end of rebellion In the
west.
On Washington's birthday a commltto
of soldiers representing the Army of the
Ohio in this city sent a letter of congratu
lation to their old-commander relative to
his recent promotion to a rank and posi
tion occupied by such military spirits as
Washington, Scott, Grant, Sherman and
Sheridan. It emphasized the stronger
fact that while prominent generals In the
late war were contending for petition
on fame's eternal rumplng ground, he
was content to leave to Impartial history
the duty of assigning him a Just ami hon
orable position In the ranks of the na
tion's hcroli! defenders in u nour or ex
treme peril. His reply, characteristic of
the modest and unassuming commander
of the nation's army. Is submitted here
with. It has a heart In it. Sincerely,
J. Frulse Richard.

My Dear Old Comrades:
With all my heart I tliunK you for your
kind letter of Feb. 22. extending to me
your generous and hearty congratulations
upon my recent promotion to the rank of
lleutenunt geneial.
During the most Important part of my
military career the old Army of the Ohio,
and especially the Twenty-third urmy
corps, and I were one.
All honor that can possibly come to me
for success during tho.ie arduous cam
paigns of the last year of tin- war are due
no less to those brave soldiers than to
me. The greatest satisfaction I cnJo,y In
the honor which the country has been
pleased to bestow upon me consists In the
fact that my old comrades share that
honor, and that they, of all In our now
happy land are most generous In their
congratulutlons.
I beg you to convey to nil my old com
rades, as opportunities offer, the fact that
I aritirecfute most sincerely their kind re
membrance of the days when we served
together In defense of the old flag and the
Union. Sincerely and fraternally yours,
J. M. sciiottuid.
