In time the commander-in-chief of the Union Army and then President of the U.S., Ulysses S. Grant was in the early 1860s in charge of the campaign against Mississippi, especially Vicksburg. In Bayard's (and Faulkner's) account of the Civil War, it is Grant himself who "issues a general order with a reward" for the capture of Colonel Sartoris (673).
