WASHINGTON, May 28,
1862.
Governor JOHN A. ANDREW,
Boston, Mass.:
I am authorized by the President to say, in reply to your
telegram, the order for the militia and three-months’ men was made by the
President himself upon deliberate consultation with the Secretary of War and
other members of his Cabinet and his military advisers. You are requested not
to make any public use of this.
S. HOOPER.
