To Lorenzo Thomas1Jump to section

Adjutant General Executive Mansion
My Dear Sir: May 10, 1861

Mr. O. Pullizi,2Jump to section as I understand, was once in the regular Army, and resigned under some charges, of which you probably know more than I do. He now wishes to re-enter the Army; and if it violates no rule of law or propriety I shall be glad for him to be obliged in that respect. Yours truly, A. LINCOLN

Annotation

[1] Copy, CSmH. Lorenzo Thomas was promoted to adjutant general March 7, 1861.

Return

[2] The source is probably in error as to the initial. The only Pullizi of record in the Army Registers is Venerando Pulizzi, who was reinstated with rank of first lieutenant, May 14, 1861, and resigned again September 9, 1861.
