DEARI?ADAMK: Your welc?medetter ot

battle, r-nd, as yciu say, little did ? dream,
when I kiit-w you playing ?9 a school git I
? n Sullivan's It-land bea< h. thal I shouV

Why, rh! ?hy ia tiri?? Il I knew, my owi
heart it beats nt? waimly as kindly HS eve?
tripart?s thoie kir.d and generous IMHU? I
that greeted ns with MU-h ?ra:tin hospilani}
io days long past, but Mill p?e?ent iii
n-ernorj-; nnd to day, were Frank and Mis
Porcher^ ind Eliza Gilman, ai d Man
Lamb, mid Margaret Blake, the Bat keddies.
Qiiaeh'e. the Pt y orr, indeed ?ny and ah
of our clieiii-hcd cirt-le, their chridr? v, ot
even their children's children, to come t<
me ?fi of old, ti e stern, feelit.gs of duty and
conviction would melt aa snow liefore th?
g? nia sun, and I believe I would strip -?\
<>wn childi* n that they might be sheltered;
and \et they call mc barba rinn, vandal,
and monster, nnd all the epithets that lan?
guage cnn invent that are significant o'
malignity and bate. All I prtteud to 'say,
<>n earth as in heaven, man moat submit to
iomo arbiter. Ile must not ihrow ? ff his
?dVgiat.ce to hisJGoverr.mtnt or hi? God
wi-bout jiuu reason and cause. Tito South
bad no cause; not even a pretext. Ind? ed,
by lier ur justifiable ceurse, she has thrown
away the proud history of the past, *nd
laid open lier fair ccuntry to the tread ol
devastating wr.r. She bantered and bullied
us to tlie conuieL Lind wo- dcclii ed,
bettie, America wou'J Lave sunk bick, j
coward and craven, meriting tko contempt j
of ill mankind. Am a nation, ?rd were i
forced to accept battle, and ll?t4 once
begun, it bas gone on till the wor baa ss
-urned proportions at which-even -ve ?:i the
"burly burly sometimes- stand aglii-a?. 1
wooli! not ?ul jugate the South in the'svb?e
so ?.rfeiisivt-ly aaaumed. bat I would, make
every cit?efii ofilia land *?bey tb? c?muiori

Aroused, a?,e o-ot?? terrible than the more

history, ibm will I say Pence-Peace; go
back io point of error, and resume your
hives as ? mei ivan citizens, with ali their
L-ror.d L?'ri'iige?-. Whether 1^ball live"to
?e tbih period is problematical, bot yeu
uiny. atid maj tell your mother and sister?
hat I never lorgot one kind look or greot*
?.g. or aver w tlied to efface ita remera
oiam-e; but in putting cn thc armor of war
I nid it that our common country shoul?
not perish in infamy and dishonor. 1 am
if?:rri*-d, have a wife and six children,
tvitig in Lancaster, Ohio. My course hoi
hem an eveiit'ul one", but I hope when tho
..louds of angeland pasaion nie dispersed,
and truth emerges bright and clear, you
-nd all who knew me in early years will
not blush that we were once dear friends.
Tell K ita, for me, that I hope she may
Jive to lealze that the doctrine of "seces?
sion'' is as monstrous in our civil code aa
<ii'obedience was in the Divine law. And, '
-hould the fortunes of war ever bring 3'ou,
or your sisters or any of our old clique
m.der the shelter of my authority, I do not
believe they will have cause to regret it.
Give my love to your children, and tho as?
surance of my respects to your honorable
husband. Truly, W. T. SHERMAN.
If every man's breast could be !o.cir|yj
into there would be found the imago oi
some woman.
