I incline to think there is some mistake in this case. Will the Sec. of War please inquire what Gen. Hooker personally knows about it? A. LINCOLN

March 7. 1863.

Annotation

[1] AES, DLC-RTL. Lincoln's endorsement is written on a letter from Colonel Moses N. Wisewell of the Twenty-eighth New Jersey Volunteers, March 3, 1863, asking investigation of the dismissal of Lieutenant William Berdine on charges of disloyalty. Succeeding endorsements are concluded by General Joseph Hooker's endorsement of March 24, ``The investigation which has been had . . . seems to establish the propriety of the order dismissing Lieutenant Berdine.'' See Lincoln's endorsement, April 8, infra.
