Nashville, Tenn. May 20, 1863. [9:50 A.M.]

Yours of yesterday in relation to Col. Haggard is received. I am anxious that you shall not misunderstand me. In no case have I intended to censure you, or to question your ability. In Col.

I frequently make mistakes myself, in the many things I am compelled to do hastily. A. LINCOLN
