Telegram To Governor Murphy. Washington, February 6, 1864. GOVERNOR J. MURPHY: My order to General Steele about an election was made in ignorance of the action your convention had taken or would take. A subsequent letter directs General Steele to aid you on your own plan, and not to thwart or hinder you. Show this to him. A. LINCOLN.
