Union - Government
President Lincoln meets with General
McClellan, now recovered from his illness - speculated to have been
typhoid fever. He rejects a move from Radical senators to remove the
general for lack of action.
President Lincoln also
writes to Buell in Kentucky, expressing his distress over "our friends
in Kentucky", urging - but not ordering - military advance in the area.
