To William A. Hammond1Jump to section
Surgeon General. Sep. 18. 1862.
Please ascertain for me whether Isaac Schneider, of the 100th. New-York Regiment, and now at the Douglas hospital is likely soon, or ever to be fit for duty again. He was wounded at Fair Oaks, as I understand; is but sixteen years old, and I am appealed to to [sic] discharge him. A. LINCOLN
