Excerpt from Description of the Ceremony of Dedication of the Statue of Major-General John Sedgwick Early in November, 1864, the Sixth Corps being then encamped on Cedar Creek, in the Valley of the Shenandoah, Major-General H. G. Wright, the corps commander, called together the division and brigade commanders, and at this meeting it was proposed and decided to erect at West Point, N. Y., a bronze statue of Major-General John Sedgwick, who had recently been killed while in command of the corps. A Committee, consisting of the corps and division commanders, was appointed to effect this design. The funds estimated to be necessary were promptly supplied by the corps, and were placed in the hands of Bvt. Colonel W. S. Franklin, Treasurer of the Committee. May 19th, 1868, a contract was made with Mr. Launt Thompson, sculptor - a copy of which is appended. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
