Gen. Gustavus W. Smith took charge of Confederate forces after the wounding of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, but President Jefferson Davis did not consider him up to the task and replaced him with the last available senior officer in Richmond, General Robert E. &#8220;Granny&#8221; Lee. By the end of the day both sides have suffered 11,165 casualties (the majority of them Confederate), but on the Union side, Maj. Gen. George B. McClellan, sickened by the carnage, had psychologically lost the initiative.
