Annotation
[1] ALS, RPB. Letters from former Governor Edwin D. Morgan, May 5, and Governor Seymour, May 4, introduced Dr. John Swinburne and his assistant Mr. J. T. Gillett, who volunteered their services to the Army following the Battle of Chancellorsville (DLC-RTL). Seymour replied to Lincoln's telegram on May 13, ``I have great confidence in Dr. Swinbourn's skill but I cannot ask the Gov't. to violate its rules. You know best the interest of the Army & I shall be contented with your decision. I am obliged to you for your courtesy.'' (Ibid.).
