To The Secretary Of War Executive Mansion, June 13, 1861 Hon. Secretary Of War MY DEAR SIR—I think it is entirely safe to accept a fifth regiment from Michigan, and with your approbation I should say a regiment presented by Col. T. B. W. Stockton, ready for service within two weeks from now, will be received. Look at Colonel Stockton's testimonials. Yours truly, A. LINCOLN.
