RICHMOND, VA., April
12, 1865 — 12 m.
(Received 3 p.m.)
His Excellency A. LINCOLN,
President of the United States:
You spoke of not pressing little points. You said you would
not order me, but if you were in my place you would not press them. The
passports have gone out for the legislature, and it is common talk that they
will come together.
GODFREY WEITZEL,
Major-General,
Commanding.
