Hon. Sec. of War. Executive Mansion.
Dear Sir: Washington. May 11th. 1863.
I have again concluded to relieve Genl Curtis. I see no other way to avoid the worst consequences there. I think of Gen. Schofield for his successor; but I do not wish to take the matter of a successor out of the hands of yourself and Genl Halleck. Yours truly. A. LINCOLN.
