Abraham Lincoln - The Papers And Writings Of Abraham Lincoln-VOL. VII (Chap. 3.58) lyrics

Telegram To General John Pope. Executive Mansion, Washington, March 7, 1865 MAJOR-GENERAL POPE, St. Louis, Missouri: Please state briefly, by telegraph, what you concluded about the a**essments in St. Louis County. Early in the war one Samuel B. Churchill was sent from St. Louis to Louisville, where I have quite satisfactory evidence that he has not misbehaved. Still I am told his property at St. Louis is subjected to the a**essment, which I think it ought not to be. Still I wish to know what you think. A. LINCOLN.
