Ran Away When Victorious
|
|
Three or four days after the battle of Bull Run, some gentlemen who had been on the field called upon the President.
He inquired very minutely regarding all the circumstances of the affair, and, after listening with the utmost
attention, said, with a touch of humor: "So it is your notion that we whipped the rebels and then ran away from them!"
(from
Lincoln's Yarns and Stories
, by Colonel Alexander K. McClure)
