2559 - L June 16; ed: 2/1 - The stubborn audacity with which Grant has
persisted in not retreating, after the first shock of battle, is a
subject of pleasantry to the WillG. -
"Admitting that Grant's army has fought as it never fought before,
the WHIG makes merry over the idea that Grant is intent on destroying
his army against Rebel breastworks, which General Lee obligingly, puts
in his way." (4)
