NE EACTS CONCERNING THE DISMISSAL
OF MAJOR KEY FROM THE Army.
We have reason 10 believe that the following
l. an exact copy OF the record upon which
M'ior John ]. Key was dismissed from the
Military service Of the United States:
"EXECUTIVE MANSION
Washington, September rs. 1852
No jOr John J. Key-Sir: am informed that
IN answer 10 the question. why was not the
rebel army baggpd immediately after the bsttIa
nrar Sharpsburg" propounded 10 you by
MAJOR Levi L. Turner. Judge Advocate, &c
yOu answered, THAT is NOT the game. The
ocjHct IS that neither army shall get much adj
vantage of the other; jhai both shall be kept i'm
az f-ld till they are exhausted, when we will
n3ke compromise and save slavery
Il shall be very happy il You Will, within
prove TO me BY Major Turner that You did not
"a ner literally or IN substance. make the ans wer
stated. Yours IJycnIS
Endorsed as follows:
copy S delivered Ii Fred to Major Key at 1925 a. M
AT about IL O'Clock a. m, Sept %, i,62,
M1lor Key and Major Turner appear before
ne Major Turner says, - As / remember it
tie conversation was: | asked the question
ny We did not bag them after the battlt. of
Snsrpsburg! Major Keys reply WIS that was
not The game that weshould tire the rebels ont
and ourselves; that that was the only way the
Mon could be preserved, we come together
lr',fernaily, and slavery be saved" On cross
examination Major Turner says he has fire.
9ueniiy heard Major Key converse i'll regardto
tia present trou bles. and never heard him utter
3 sentiment unfayorable TO the maintenance OF
tie Union He has never uttered ANYTHING
" nich he, Major T.. would call disloyalty. The
particular conversation detailed was 4 private
one. A IrSCor y >:
Endorsed on the above:
In my view, IL is wholly inadmiS sible for
any gentleman holding Il military commission
from the United States, 10 inter such sentiments
a. MAJOR Key is within proved TO have done
Therefore, let Major John J. Kew be forthwith
dismissed from the military service of the
4 hlfed states. A. LINCOLN"
The foregoing is the whole record. except the
simple order of the dismissal ar the War De-
partment. AT the interview OF Major Key and
Maior Turner with the President, Major Kew
I'D not attempt TO coniroyert the statement of
Major Turner; but simply insisted. and sought
70 prove, that he was true 10 the Union. The
substance OF the Presidents reply was that il
there was a"game" even among Union men 10
have our army not take an advantage of the
e4l-ny when il could, il was kis object 10 break
up ;hat game.
