Mrs. Lincoln did pass through lines for Richmond via
Fortress Monroe with three large trunks containing med.
cnes and merchandise that tho chucng OF the rebel
press her safe transit with rebel uniforms and but

wont to be respecter OF and is considered
here legitimate inquiry why he permitted this woman
70 pass 70 the enemy with her great quantity OF CONTRA

From late personal interview with Major milford,
commander Of flag Of boat learn that the ar

has lately been making trip per week to and from
City Point and the Major brought up copy OF Atlanta
Ga paper containing the substance Of the above article
two weeks prior to his carrying Mrs White through
lines and the lady herself spoke Of having the article
before leaving Washington.
certainly think the 7ribinie's correspondent should
pay attention TO the truth and less to giving pub

ticularly when those articles stolen by him from
rebel newspapers instead Of being stated 10 best in
