Major-General George G. Meade to Margaretta Sergeant Mead, December 12, 1863

Headquarters Army Of The Potomac, December 12, 1863.

The mail has just come in and brings to-day's Washington Chronicle, which announces I am not to be relieved. As this paper is edited by Forney, who is supposed to have confidential relations with the Administration, I presume this announcement may be considered semi-official.
