Let the German committee from N.Y send in this card
Jan. 22. 1862. A. LINCOLN
Annotation
[1] ADS, DLC-Nicolay Papers. Friedrich Kapp, Weil Von Gernsbach, and Andreas Willmann were named as a committee to call on Lincoln in protest against the supposed bad treatment of General Franz Sigel (New York times, January 17, 1862). Lincoln was reported to have told the committee that Sigel would be made ``a General of Division. Also that Col. Koerner of Iowa [sic] will be made a Brigadier General.'' (New York Tribune, January 23, 1862).
