Capitolo 47

back in old Virginia, taking his/her time as him went long, and being
in any temperament to accelerate his/her footsteps. In short, we followed again him to us
timidly to House of the Court of the orange, where he made a setup for the
winter. There was very small fight done during the
autumn and winter, but any side seemed to earn some advantage.
The fate of war hung in the equilibrium. If we earned an advantage one
day, the enemy would do anything to compensate him/it on the next one. This
state of things was a source of the great pain to the nation. The
people wanted anything more positive for the great amount of the life
and ago treasure of them you/they were wasting. Them orders to call more seriousness and
more decision from our generals and a best system of
the war continuing from the authorities to Washington.
Then, my child, the impatience of the people was for a long time kept account of, and when
spring came (I intend the spring of 1864), and the people were tired
of the war, and it demanded a change in the policy of condurrlo, this way
that end the is set more quickly possible to him, the government
started to wake up him to his/her duty. We had been fighting against battles for two years
and hung the nation in to cry, and he/she anchors Washington it was as often
in danger as Richmond. Indeed, the fortune of war seemed for
Richmond. Then the government started to see that if we earned
victories that our armies must be command at soldiers not the statesmen.

Yes, my child, the people were excited for rejoycing when the government
changed his/her military policy and the great General that Grant has been brought
to Washington and it put in command of all of our armies. The sun of
our hopes made then, for the people trust had in that
general. He had whipped so well the rebels for us in the west, and
he had earned for us so a lot of glorious victories.

And now, my child, we come to this extraordinary siege of Washington. ME
says extraordinary, for him you/he/she is destined for being standing on the pages of soldier
