February 18, 1862
Brigadier-General F. W. LANDER:
The President directs me to say that he has observed with pleasure the
activity and enterprise manifested by yourself and the officers and soldiers of
your command. You have shown how much may be done .n the worst weather and worst
roads by a spirited officer at the head of a small force of brave men, unwilling
to waste life in camp when the enemies of their country are within reach. Your
brilliant success is a happy presage of what may be expected when the Army of
the Potomac shall be led to the field by their gallant general.
EDWIN M. STANTON,
Secretary of War
