Telegram to General McClellan. Washington, May 24, 1862. 4 Pm.
MAJOR-GENERAL G. B. McCLELLAN:
In consequence of General Banks’s critical position, I have been compelled to suspend General McDowell’s movements to join you. The enemy are making a desperate push upon Harper’s Ferry, and we are trying to throw General Fremont’s force and part of General McDowell’s in their rear.
A. LINCOLN, President.
