TELEGRAM TO GOVERNOR JOHNSON. WASHINGTON, July 27, 1864.
GOVERNOR JOHNSON, Nashville, Tennessee:
Yours in relation to General A. C. Gillam just received. Will look after the matter to-day.
I also received yours about General Carl Schurz. I appreciate him certainly, as highly as you do; but you can never know until you have the trial, how difficult it is to find a place for an officer of so high rank when there is no place seeking him.
A. LINCOLN. [ [!-- H2 anchor --] ]
TO Mrs. ANNE WILLIAMSON,
EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON, July 29, 1864.
Mrs. ANNE WILLIAMSON.
MADAM:—The plaid you send me is just now placed in my hands. I thank you for that pretty and useful present, but still more for those good wishes for myself and our country, which prompted you to present it.
Your obedient servant,
