    College ILttirarjj FROM THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT ' THROUGH £> VICKSBURG NATIONAL MILITARY PARK COMMISSION. RECORD OF THE ORGANIZATIONS ENGAGED IN THE CAMPAIGN, SIEGE, AND DEFENSE OF VICKSBURG. COMPILED FROM THE OFFICIAL RECORDS BY jomsr s. KOUNTZ, SECRETARY AND HISTORIAN OF THE COMMISSION. WASHINGTON: GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE. 1901. PREFACE. The Vicksburg campaign opened March 29, 1863, with General Grant's order for the advance of General Osterhaus' division from Millikens Bend, and closed July 4^, 1863, with the surrender of Pem- berton's army and the city of Vicksburg. Its course was determined by General Grant's plan of campaign. This plan contemplated the march of his active army from Millikens Bend, La. , to a point on the river below Vicksburg, the running of the batteries at Vicksburg by a sufficient number of gunboats and transports, and the transfer of his army to the Mississippi side. These points were successfully accomplished and, May 1, the first battle of the campaign was fought near Port Gibson. Up to this time General Grant had contemplated the probability of uniting the army of General Banks with his. He then decided not to await the arrival of Banks, but to make the cam paign with his own army. May 12, at Raymond, Logan's division of Grant's army, with Crocker's division in reserve, was engaged with Gregg's brigade of Pemberton's army. Gregg was largely outnum bered and, after a stout fight, fell back to Jackson. The same day the left of Grant's army, under McClernand, skirmished at Fourteen- mile Creek with the cavalry and mounted infantry of Pemberton's army, supported by Bowen's division and two brigades of Loring's division.

  • The Samuel Richey Collection of the Southern Confederacy 1805-1915
    Walter Havighurst Special Collections Miami University Libraries The Samuel Richey Collection of the Southern Confederacy 1805-1915 OVERVIEW OF THE COLLECTION Title: The Samuel Richey Collection of the Southern Confederacy Creators: Sutton C. Richey and Samuel W. Richey Dates: 1805-1915 Media: Correspondence, manuscript documents, printed material, photographs, framed items Quantity: 4 cubic feet Location: Closed stacks COLLECTION SUMMARY This collection includes over 500 pieces of correspondence relating to Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederate States of America, and Confederate generals, including G.T. Beauregard, Braxton Bragg, Samuel Cooper, Joseph E. Johnson, Robert E. Lee, James A. Seddon, E. Kirby Smith, Richard Taylor, and William H. Thomas, among other noted figures of the Civil War and the mid- to late-19th century. Correspondence of Varina Davis, Mary Randolph Custis Lee, and Mary Custis Lee, together with some photographs and other pieces of ephemera, can also be found in the collection. PROVENANCE OF THE COLLECTION This collection was begun by Sutton C. Richey (1837-1900). After studying Miami University in 1854 and 1855, Richey worked as a druggist in Oxford, Ohio from 1857 to 1891. Richey also served as treasurer of Miami University (1869-1900) and the Village of Oxford (1874-1900). 2 Admiration for Robert E. Lee as a leader, educator and gentleman inspired Sutton Richey’s son, Samuel W. Richey (1874-1973), to become interested in Jefferson Davis and collect documents relating to his career. An 1894 graduate of Miami University, Samuel Richey worked as a Cincinnati lumber broker. The majority of this collection was donated to Miami University in 1960; other items were acquired more recently as a result of an endowment that provides funds to purchase important items complementing the contents of the original collection.

  • Civil War Spies and Spying 5
    EDUCATOR’S GUIDE A MESSAGE FROM PETER EARNEST, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE INTERNATIONAL SPY MUSEUM AND FORMER OPERATIONS OFFICER, CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY This year on the 150th anniversary of the Civil War, there is a cascade of books, films, lectures, reenactments, and programs surrounding the events and significance of this tortured and bloody chapter in America’s two centuries old saga. Throughout the war, marked by splintered families, divided loyalties, and casualties in the hundreds of thousands, each side maneuvered to gain an edge, an advantage that might change the course of the war to gain victory or avoid defeat. That edge often lies in discovering the strengths and weaknesses of one’s adversary, in learning his secret plans and subterfuges, and in seeking to deceive him. Today we call such knowledge intelligence and plans to deceive, covert action. The Civil War was rife with both. And as in military conflicts throughout history, the edge often depended on which side could win the race to develop winning technologies. As a former Intelligence Officer, I vividly recall our strenuous efforts in the Central Intelligence Agency to develop leading edge communications technology during the Cold War. I was in the CIA unit engaged in clandestine operations to recruit Soviet officials as secret sources and to developing the technology for communicating with them secretly and securely. As the risk of working secretly with the CIA was often a matter of life and death to our sources, we in the Agency felt a special obligation to protect them at any cost. The Agency and its dedicated engineers and technical support staff worked tirelessly to develop new high tech, highly classified communications systems.

I can attest that, at least in my case, it required a city to achieve the task. Fortunately, I could not have possibly asked for a better safety net than the one that has surrounded me over the span of twenty-nine years and I have traveled across the western hemisphere to find its components.
