Annotation

[1] OR, III, III, 252. Edward D. Townsend promptly telegraphed Burnside a copy of Lincoln's letter and instructed him to revoke the order suspending publication of the Chicago Times (ibid.). On the same day Burnside issued an order revoking not only the suspension of the Times but also the suppression of the New York World, circulation of which had been prohibited in his department (ibid., II, V, 741). Both papers had bitterly criticized Burnside and the administration for the arrest of Vallandigham.
