[1] AES, DNA WR RG 107, Secretary of War, Personnel Appointments, Box 16. Lincoln's endorsement is written on a letter from James W. Grimes and James Harlan recommending appointment of Colonel Nicholas Pretzel [Perczel ?] of the Tenth Iowa Infantry as a brigadier general in the place of Thomas J. McKean, who was supposedly resigning. McKean did not resign, however, and Pretzel was not appointed.
