TELEGRAM TO GENERAL W。 S。 ROSECRANS。



WASHINGTON; May 20; 1863。



MAJOR…GENERAL ROSECRANS:



Yours of yesterday in regard to Colonel Haggard is received。  I am

anxious that you shall not misunderstand me。  In no case have I

intended to censure you or to question your ability。  In Colonel

Haggard's case I meant no more than to suggest that possibly you

might have been mistaken in a point that could 'be' corrected。  I

frequently make mistakes myself in the many things I am compelled to

do hastily。



A。 LINCOLN。

TO GENERAL SCHOFIELD。



EXECUTIVE MANSION; WASHINGTON

May 27; 1863。



GENERAL JOHN M。 SCHOFIELD。



MY DEAR SIR:Having relieved General Curtis and assigned you to the

command of the Department of the Missouri; I think it may be of some

advantage for me to state why I did it。  I did not relieve General

Curtis because of any full conviction that he had done wrong by

commission or omission。  I did it because of a conviction in my mind

that the Union men of Missouri; constituting; when united; a vast

majority of the whole people; have entered into a pestilent factional

quarrel among themselvesGeneral Curtis; perhaps not of choice;

being the head of one faction and Governor Gamble that of the other。

After months of labor to reconcile the difficulty; it seemed to grow

worse and worse; until I felt it my duty to break it up somehow; and

as I could not remove Governor Gamble; I had to remove General

Curtis。  Now that you are in the position; I wish you to undo nothing

merely because General Curtis or Governor Gamble did it; but to

exercise your own judgment; and do right for the public interest。

Let your military measures be strong enough to repel the invader and

keep the peace; and not so strong as to unnecessarily harass and

persecute the people。  It is a difficult role; and so much greater

will be the honor if you perform it well。  If both factions; or

neither; shall abuse you; you will probably be about right。  Beware

of being assailed by one and praised by the other。



Yours truly;



A。 LINCOLN。

WASHINGTON; May 29; 1863
