19 March 1864
McClellan, George Brinton, 1826-1885
Autograph letter signed
Title: to Major Morris S. Miller
"From what I know of the state of affairs in Washington and the feelings and intentions of the administration, I am satisfied that the course you advise would produce no useful results... Everything indicates the settled purpose to keep me unemployed during the remainder of the term of this administration, and I am sure that I should only subject myself to an unpleasant relief were I in any way to make suggestions as to military affairs."
