Book Description
Excerpt from Argument of Anson Maltby, Counsel for the Petitioner, Fitz John Porter, Before the Advisory Board of Officers at West Point, January, 1879 Maj -gen. Fitz John Porter will remain at Warrenton Junction till he is relieved by maj.-gen. Banks, when he will immediately push forward with his corps in the direction of Greenwich and Gainesville, to assist the operations on the right wing. Maj. - Gen. Banks, as soon as he arrives at Warrenton Junction, will assume the charge of the trains, and cover their movement toward Manassas Junction. The train of his own corps, _under escort of two regiments of infantry and a battery of artillery, will pursue the road, south of the railroad, which conducts into the rear of Manassas Junction. As soon as the trains have passed Warrenton Junction he will take post behind Cedar Run, covering the fords. And bridges of that stream, and holding the position as long'as possible. He will cause all the railroad trains to be loaded with the public and private stores now here, and run them back towards Manassas Junction as far as the railroad is practicable. Wherever a bridge is burned so as to impede the further passage of the railroad trains, he will assemble them all as near together as possible and protect them with his command until the bridges are rebuilt. If the enemy is too strong before him before the bridges can be repaired, he will, be careful to destroy entirely the train, locomotives and stores, before he falls back in the direction of Manassas Junction. He is, however, to understand that he is to defend his position as long as possible, keeping himself in constant communication with major-general Porter on his right. If any sick, now in hospital at Warrenton Junction, are not pro vided for and able to be transported, he will have them loaded into the wagon train of his own corps (even if this should necessitate the destruction of much baggage and regimental property) and carried to Manassas Junction. The very important duty de volved upon major-gen. Banks, the major-general commanding the Army of Virginia feels assured that he will discharge with intelligence, courage and fidelity.
