Er erfuhr, dass Jackson zu Harpers Ferry gegangen war – eine Wahrheit, die er von seinen eigenen Pfadfindern und Spionen und dem Getöse der Artillerie in seinen Ohren gelernt haben muss. Die Kanonade konnte bei Frederick deutlich gehört werden, und sagte, dass jemand Wasbeleaguering Harpers Ferry. Die irreführende Information war, dass Longstreet in Boons-Boro war.

He learned thatJackson had gone to Harpers Ferry — a truththat he must have learned from his own scoutsand spies and the roar of artillery in his ownears. The cannonading could be distinctlyheard at Frederick, and told that some one wasbeleaguering Harpers Ferry. The misleadinginformation was that Longstreet was at Boons-boro. The map of the battle-field of SouthMountain, prepared in 1872, ten years after the fight, by the United States Bureau ofEngineers, represents ten regiments and onebattalion under Longstreet at the foot of themountain on the morning of the 14th of Sep-tember, 1862. Longstreet was then an ordinarydays march from that point. In fact, after theremoval of Colquitts brigade, about sevena. m., there was not a Southern soldier at thefoot of the mountain until three p. m., whenCaptain Park of the Twelfth Alabama Regi-ment was sent there with forty men.

But it seems strange that the UnitedStates Engineers should repeat the blunder, with the light of history thrown for ten yearsupon all the incidents of the battle.
