Abraham Lincoln - The Papers And Writings Of Abraham Lincoln-VOL. VI (Chap. 1.26) lyrics

Telegram To General R. Saxton. War Department, May 25, 1862. GENERAL SAXTON, Harper's Ferry: I fear you have mistaken me. I did not mean to question the correctness of your conduct; on the contrary! I approve what you have done. As the 2500 reported by you seemed small to me, I feared some had got to Banks and been cut off with him. Please tell me the exact number you now have in hand. A. LINCOLN.
