[1] AES, ORB. Lincoln's endorsement is written on an order from Major General Christopher C. Augur's headquarters, Department of Washington, July 3, 1864: ``If his Excellency the president of the U.S. wishes an escort, Lt. [James B.] Jameson will furnish it keeping the old Es. of his Co. at its present location.''
