Indianapolis Journal recounts a San Antonio lecture by John H. Reagan on Confederate commander General Lee. The talk describes Lee shielding himself behind trees to issue orders, the near collapse of his lines, and his strategic choice to avoid overstressing troops. Reagan also notes a bold plan to strike Grant’s rear near Lynchburg, risking disruption of Grant’s supply base and potential fall of Richmond.
