Tlio tltlo ol this work will bo Butlers
Hook nnd It Is advertised as a
complete review of Ills local political
nnd military career I Is dedicated to the
Rood nnd bravo soldiers of tho Qrnnd Army ot
tho Itepubllc
Tho preface to tho bcok which Is slcnod by I
Gen Butler Is BO Interesting In Itself that It
It worth a complete reproduction I is a char
acteristic piece of work and unlike moat pre
face It will rocelTO ns much Attention from
ibo render as any other portion of tho book
Tho preface of n boo OCD Ilutlor says
Is usually written alter the book Is finished
and Is as unusually loft unread I Is not as
a rule therefore olthor 1 convenience
or a necessity I venture however to uso
It nt tha outset as a vohtclo for convo > lng tho
purposes of writing Iho book at all Hnlng
lived through nnd tilon tmrt In a war tho
greatest of tho niauy centuries and I
carried on by armies rivalling In

In power posterity dory nnd stability uu
euuullcd by that of nny nation of tho earth I

thoso who nro In their lolatlons tu mo per

not In Bmoral Instances hi en otbliiited to

Finally I desire to correct much of wrong
done to myself by prejudiced inlsreniosonta
tlou of acts and clrcumstini us to
my own nets In the terrlc of the
country especially In connection win
the conduct ol Its nrmlos Therefore
1 thojiuht It but just to myself and posterity
that tha iruo facts as I know them should be
brought out All the o consideration bau
voiiiuolliit me to undertake at this lutn
day ot my Ufa the labor ot
preparing Ibo material nocesnury to
be expended In writing this book and of put
tine It In proper lonn 1erhaps I woulil be
well In addition to show how the book is
written Wherever facts nni sot out 1
bave Intended that It should bo dona
with literal and exact accuracy so far as they
depend upon my knowledge nnd In many
cases they are exact memoranda of events
but where anv fact Is detailed upon the testi
mony of others I hao endeavored to
verity I by consulting and miiklnc known
the citations of the authorities either In tbe
text or In the notes 1 have thought It
the better way however to make careful
examination of the accounts stated In
other publications and to draw from thor In
my own manner any colnt which may be sub
I ject to contradiction in regard to the nccruaey
ol tho fact stated Where I know a fact exists
1 say so and whero I believe it to dst from
t information and belief I hare Riven the eourco
1 irom which I derived that belief If IdOl
ver bele
doubt as to Its truth or challenge its
correctness wherever opinions aro ox
pioosed upon men their character
nnd conduct and the motives which Influenced
r them they are my own opinions and 1 bore
Jot capable of denial as such Whether thoso
upmlonn are correct well founded or proper in
any respoirt is open to the fullest criticism
As to my personal acts and doings nod
omissions to do I liaxe lu naught extenuated
but I have reserved to myself the prlvlicgn
I of explaining nnd exhibiting my motes and
loolints In logord to others I have aul
down uauelit In malice reserving to mysoll
however the privilege of tnylng In recard to
i nny man personally wbnt I think is rlcht to
sny of him however harsh the criticism may
be nod of giving I true definition of character
lor in whatever distinct terms the criticism calls
In speaking of events I have as far as
possible put them In juxtaposition and
II wltb such benrlngs upon each other that
r they shall consist In fco far n they
I may of Items of history which may aid
others to reach the truth When the time lias
come In tbu far future for tho truth
of history to be exactly written I
