Abraham Lincoln - The Papers And Writings Of Abraham Lincoln-VOL. VI (Chap. 2.15) lyrics

Telegram To General S. R. Curtis. Executive Mansion, Washington, January 10, 1863. MAJOR-GENERAL CURTIS, St. Louis, MO.: I understand there is considerable trouble with the slaves in Missouri. Please do your best to keep peace on the question for two or three weeks, by which time we hope to do something here toward settling the question in Missouri. A. LINCOLN.
