The Union army engaged at Franklin, not Including cavalry, numbered about 23,000 men, of whom 189 were killed, 1,033 wounded and 1,104 missing. Of this loss 1,241 were in Wag ner's division. The Confederates engaged num bered about 22,000. There are no complete of ficial reports of Hood's losses; as far as figures are available it appears that the Confederates lost 534 in killed, 1,744 wounded and 417 in miss ing; but Schofield reports that 1,750 were buried on the field, 3,800 were disabled and placed in hospitals and 702 captured, an aggregate of 6,252, to which must be added the slightly wounded, probably 2,000. A controversy arose regarding the responsibility for the heavy losses of the Union forces which was followed by an investigation, resulting in the censure of Gen eral Wagner's actions and in his removal from his command at his own request. On the Confederate side General Hood was blamed by many for his severe losses, and, although his superiors held him blameless, he too was re lieved at his own request. Franklin, Tenn., was also the scene of various other actions, engage ments and skirmishes fought on 9, 12, 26, 27 Dec. 1862; 1 Feb.; 4, 31 March; 9, 10 April; 4
