Abraham Lincoln - The Papers And Writings Of Abraham Lincoln-VOL. VI (Chap. 2.183) lyrics

Telegram To General J. M. Schofield. War Department, Washington, July 13, 1863. GENERAL SCHOFIELD. St. Louis, Mo.: I regret to learn of the arrest of the Democrat editor. I fear this loses you the middle position I desired you to occupy. I have not learned which of the two letters I wrote you it was that the Democrat published, but I care very little for the publication of any letter I have written. Please spare me the trouble this is likely to bring. A. LINCOLN.
