Major-General George G. Meade to Margaretta Sergeant Mead, August 8, 1864

Headquarters Army Of The Potomac, August 8, 1864.

Grant has not yet returned from Washington. It is reported he has gone to Harper's Ferry to see for himself how matters stand. This, and his not telegraphing for me, I think settle the question about my being transferred.
