Second Bull Run (August 30-31, 1862)<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I have come to you from the West, where we have always seen the backs of our enemies.\u00a0 Success and glory are in the advance, disaster and shame lurk in the rear. –Gen. John Pope, July 14, 1862<\/p>\n

Well, John we are whipped again, I am afraid.\u00a0 The enemy reinforced on Pope and drove back his left wing and he has retired to Centerville where he says he will be able to hold his men.\u00a0 I don’t like that expression.\u00a0 I don’t like to hear him admit that his men need holding…We must hurt this enemy before it gets away. –Abraham Lincoln, September 1, 1862<\/p>\n

We must use what tools we have. –Lincoln on McClellan’s return to active field command, September 5, 1862<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
