To Edwin M. Stanton1Jump to section

Hon. Sec. of War Executive Mansion,
Dear Sir: Washington, May 26, 1864.

Let Stephen C. Campbell, now held as a prisoner of War at Johnson's Island,2Jump to section be discharged on taking the oath. This is a special case, and not a precedent, the man having voluntarily quitted the rebel service, and also being subject to fits. Yours truly

A LINCOLN
