The Memoirs of General Ulysses S. Grant
Part 6.

CHAPTER LXIV
10/21

He sent staff officer after staff officer in search of Warren, directing that general to report to him, but they were unable to find him.

Finally he went himself.

He issued an order relieving Warren and assigning Griffin to the command of the 5th corps.

The troops were then brought up and the assault successfully made.
