Some of the 'too many'
From The New-York Times December 13, 1861:
NEWS FROM WASHINGTON….
VISIT OF THE INDIAN DELEGATES TO THE CAMPS. …
… The Indian delegates yesterday visited the camps in Virginia, and witnessed division drills and reviews. They expressed their astonishment and delight at the military power of the Government and their opinion of the statements of rebel Commissioners, by saying, “ALBERT — PIKE — lies.” One of the chiefs, with Senatorial dignity, said, “Too many — ought to move.” …
Albert Pike was a Confederate commissioner to the American Indian tribes. General George McClellan was taking his time getting the Union army “on to Richmond”.
No place like ... headquarters
The general moves - through the mail
