Gen, Adam Badeau has made public a state- ment, several columns in length, of his relations to General Grant’s literary ventures, defending iimself from the imputations put upon him tn the correspondence recently given to the press by Col, Fred. Grant. In his communication Badeau says: “To a communication to General Grant I received a reply, still In my possession, covering ten or eleven pages of foolscap, all in the hand- writing of Colonel Grant, but signed by General Grant, terminating my connection with the book, denying statements General Grant had previously made in writing, descending to details of false- hood and pettiness of which the hero of Aj a tox was imcapaoie, and w whieh ne would never have put his signature had he been in health of mind and body. 1 wrote alone and left his house, and when I ci afterw: ‘twice within a few weeks, was not allowed to see him. I never met him and thus ended a friend- —_ as intimate as has often existed between men, as honorable to both in the separate relations of chief and subordinate as it was possible for such a friendship to be. { have, of cout never sup- posed that the termination of this ip was the act of General Grant, ‘This Was 1D May, 1885, and in July General Grant died. I have twice stated in writii which must be in the posses- ‘sion of General Grant's family that I have no de- sire, intention or right to claim the authorship of ‘General Grant's Memoirs.’ I have never asserted that I furnished original matter for it to any con- siderable extent, WHAT I DID ON GEN. GRANT'S BOOK he constantly and repeatedly requested me to keep secret, even from his family, and I have scrupu- lously conformed to his desire. In view of Col. Granv’s remarks, however, I now propose to make @statement of my connection with the Memoirs, sul only for Gen, Grant's family, or such persons as it may be necessary for them or me to consult, and with the hope that Gen. Grant’s desire for secrecy. may even yet be complied with. In June, 1884, ‘Ue editors of the Century M: Ine renewed the request tuey bad previousiy made through me that Gen. Grant write for their magazine, and empowered me to offer _him $1,000 for two articles on any of his battles which he might select as themes. After awhile he made the attempt, and when he had written a few he sent for me to visit him at Long Branch, and showed me his work. This I revised, and showed hun how to en- large the paper; and’ after a good deal of labor of | this sort, I changing the phraseology and con- Stractiog wheuever 1 chose, and Gen. Grant al- ‘the paper was co} ways accepting my cl dy Col Grant and taken tothe editors of the Cen- tury. Mr. Jolnson, one of the editors, at once waited on Gen. Grant and asked for more matter, making one or two suggestions in regard to themes or treatment. I was at Gen. Gran’t house when Unis visit occurred, and later I revised with bim the subsequent and enlarged article.” WHAT BADRAU SAYS HE DID. After the contract made with Gen. Grant to assist in writing the memoirs, Mr. Badeau con- Unues: “{ took this rough material to my own room, and made any changes I saw fit in language or style. 1 took out_ whole 1 transferred Others from one part of the to another. I Iuoditied any expressions which I disilked or dts. approved, and there Was not a page in U volume, Hof one in the Second down to the Wilder: ness campaign, which did not contain a dozen alterations of modifications entirely mine. 1 broke up sentences. I softened or heightened the effect. I corrected the grammar, and all with the knowl edge and sanction and’ by the express and re peated desire of Gen. Grant. He never knew Whether what he wrote was good English, and Bis, slips im grammar were constant se'had, besides, no idea whatever of building up a chapter, of a book, or of treating a tueme so as to lead up ‘to a point or to make a ‘complete picture ‘or’ argument, "The book could not have been made what it 1s without me. ‘There Was Do one else who bad both my peculiar Knowledge of the theme and the literary quality. Gen. Grant once said to me: ‘Badeau, I Know} could not do this work without you. I think I could tell a plain story, so that people would understand what 1 meant; but I could not write such a book as this without you, You have been invaluable and indispensable Co me, not only in Verification and revision, but in si ‘and Tam very grateful.’ I am’ anxious that the Char. acter of iny relation to his book should be buried forever in oblivion, 1 have never raised the ques- ton, I have sald ‘not one word in print about it; Thave avoided it altogether, except. with wy law yersormy most confidential trends. For this Teason Ihave borne with the delay in the fulfill- ment of the agreement, I HAVE NOT GONE INTO THE COURTS, although the contract expressly states that I was to receive $5,000 out of the first $20,000 proftts, and $5,000 out of the next $10,000, and Mrs. Grant has Tecetved hundreds of thousands of dollars and not pald mes penny. Doubtiess she as misappre- nded the facts, or she, as a Woman of hoor, Would never have sed tie dishonor to her great husband's name of a broken agreement; she Would hever have failed to keep his word—a word given to procure his release trom a prior pledge. What I ask of the family ie to carry out this agreement, to pay me $¥,750, with interest from the day when they received the first pay- ment, amounting to $30,000. Two hundred and Afty dollars, I have said, Gen. Grant paid on the day "when he received $1,000, all he ever drew in person. He carried out ule agreement 30 far as he was able. The fuiftliment ofthis written contract is better than litigation, which must in- evitably divulge to alt the world the secrets that Gen. Grant so carefully hid and which I have sa- crediy endeavored to withhold.” After the service of the frst papersin the sult.Mr. Badeau continues: “Although } had taree sepa- Tate times been told by Col, Grant and bis lawyers 1 resort to the courts, they made me an offer of $7,500 for my claim, Tat arst was unwilling. £0 accept the proposition, but finally consented to compromise for the sake still of Gen. Grant and his honored memory. I stipulated, however, that the Grants should piy my lawyer's’ ice, “and us they consented to do to the extent of $500. But when a release Was presented to me they added & stipulation that in consideration of tne $5,000 paid 1 disclaimed any authorship, joint author- Ship of co-authorship of the memoirs. ‘This 1 post- lively refused to sign.” Badeau closes his letter With a defense of his action in asking Gen. Grant, for a new contract and some SWARP CRITICISMS OF COL. GRANT. “Gen. Granv’s letier, which was written by Col. Fred. Grant, I do not hesitate to assert could never have recetved Gen. Grant's sanction had he been well in body and mind; but, drugged, dis- eased, and under the intluence of his son, he put his mime to a paper unworthy of his fame, tuuh of Betty spite and vulgar malice, such as he never played, and, worse yet, of positive and paipabie falyenood: It gives mie Ue lie, on whose ‘veracity his own history depends It doubts in words the Pecuniary claiins of tue man who had "been ‘is timate friend for half a lifetime, and yet invites that man 19 ve his and totimate com- panidn.
