Letter

Robert Lincoln to Frederick T. Frelinghuysen, May 8, 1882

Mr. Lincoln to Mr. Frelinghuysen.

Sir: I have the honor to inclose for your information copy of a telegram from Lieutenant-General Sheridan, dated the 4th instant, stating that the very successful results obtained from the untiring pursuit of the hostile Apaches is due to the careful management of Colonel Mackenzie and Lieutenant-Colonel Forsyth and the arrangements made for the co-operation of the Mexican military commanders on the border. A similar copy is furnished this day to the honorable Secretary of the Interior.

Very respectfully, &c.,

ROBERT T. LINCOLN,
Secretary of War.
