James Longstreet Confederate
James Longstreet Confederate General Post-War ALS to Pres. U.S. Grant James Longstreet (1821-1904). Confederate Lieutenant General considered Lee's most trusted subordinate. Postwar ALS to President Grant 3pp December 29 1871 New Orleans Louisiana.Longstreet is writing to Grant regarding issues related to his role as surveyor of customs in New Orleans. Grant appointed Longstreet to the job in return for his being the most senior Confederate officer to join the Republican Party during reconstruction and to endorse his former enemy for president. Whether Longstreet switched his allegiance because he thought it was the right thing to do or because it would help secure him a government job it was not easy: he was despised by Southerners and as illustrated in this letter mistrusted by Northerners as well. Longstreet is responding to influential Republicans' requests for a change in the office and he has accordingly secured the resignation of Deputy Survey A.J. Smith though he laments that in view of the efforts of some of the prominent Federal Offices Men to cause my removal it sometimes occurs to me that my own resignation might be more appropriate but after explaining the effect these petty politics are having on the harmony of actions that is important to the function of the office he writes On the other hand some of my friends think that my resignation may to some extent imperil the policy of your administration.Longstreet goes on to give a strong endorsement of carpetbagging Republican Louisiana governor Henry C. Warmoth even as Longstreet admits Warmoth has aligned against Grant and the Republicans in the coming year's elections. Warmoth would end up being impeached for meddling in the electoral vote count with Grant ensuring the office went to William Pitt Kellogg who is one of those referenced as demanding a change in Longstreet's office in the beginning of the letter. Condition: Very good condition with very minor soiling and bleeding of ink. Final page engrossed in thicker paper.
