Telegram to General McClellan. Washington, April 6, 1862.
GENERAL G. B. McCLELLAN:
Yours of 11 A. M. today received. Secretary of War informs me that the forwarding of transportation, ammunition, and Woodbury’s brigade, under your orders, is not, and will not be, interfered with. You now have over one hundred thousand troops with you, independent of General Wool’s command. I think you better break the enemy’s line from Yorktown to Warwick River at once. This will probably use time as advantageously as you can.
A. LINCOLN, President
