Excerpt from Forty-Six Years in the Army Ost of the chapters constituting the contents of this volume, were written, from time to time, as soon as practicable after the events referred to, or after the publication of historical writings Which seemed to me to require comment from the' point of view of my personal knowledge. They were written entirely Without reserve, and With the sole purpose of telling exactly What I thought and believed, not With any pur pose of publication in my lifetime, but as my contribu tion to the materials Which may be useful to the impartial historian of some future generation. These writings had been put away for safe-keeping, With instructions for the guidance of my executors, in Which I said: All the papers must be carefully revised, errors cor rected if any are found, unimportant matter eliminated, and everything omitted Which may seem, to a cool and impartial judge, to be unjust or unnecessarily harsh or severe toward the memory of any individual. I have aimed to be just, and not unkind. If I have failed in any case, it is my Wish that my mistakes may be corrected, as far as possible. I have not attempted to write history, but simply to make a record of events personally known to me, and of my Opinions upon such acts of others, and upon such important subjects, as have come under my special notice. It is my contribution to the materials from Which the future historian must draw for his data for a truthful history of our time.
