MY DEAR SIR:--There is, it seems, a regiment in Massachusetts commandedby Fletcher Webster, and which HON. Daniel Webster's old friends very muchwish to get into the service. If it can be received with the approval ofyour department and the consent of the Governor of Massachusetts I shallindeed be much gratified. Give Mr. Ashmun a chance to explain fully. Yours truly, A. LINCOLN. 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 fromMichigan, and with your approbation I should say a regiment presented byCol. T. B. W.
