Abraham Lincoln - The Papers And Writings Of Abraham Lincoln-VOL. VII (Chap. 3.74) lyrics

Telegram To Secretary Stanton. City Point, Va., March 26, 1865. (Received 11.30 A.M.) HON. SECRETARY OF WAR: I approve your Fort Sumter programme. Grant don't seem to know Yeatman very well, but thinks very well of him so far as he knows. Thinks it probable that Y. is here now, for the place. I told you this yesterday as well as that you should do as you think best about Mr. Whiting's resignation, but I suppose you did not receive the dispatch. I am on the boat and have no later war news than went to you last night. A. LINCOLN.
