WYE kept counsel and went back and
w thought would see what Caleb Cushing
about. notice in the papers stated
that he had returned from Richmond Friday night
We thought that that would go so far and took
it for what it WORTH but belief that Ca
leb Gushing consulting with Col. Lee as he was
suspected to be a secret rebel. AS for myself went
to ask Col Lee this simple question, "Are you this
day for your country or against t?" up to that
time he had strongly resisted the secession of the old
Commonwealth Virginia, and he went off after
his supposed interview with Caleb Gushing to Alex
andra to worship and thence to Richmond, Va.
After that the convention of Virginia resolved on
secession and Col Lee surrendered its action and
accepted the command of the Virginia State troops
Several years after somebody published that it was
not worth while for Bingham go to see Col. Lee
earth could have got him to change his
plans to change his mind Col Lee was an Off
of the army of the United States, and he could
properly be approached by any citizen, especially by
a Representative from the Northern States to ask
him the great question, whether he that day for
the Union against it. We will let history tell the
balance Of this great story Of the civil war, though it
my opinion that that Sunday night after the
conference with Caleb Gushing, Col. Lee decided on
the side Of the Conederacy and to take command Of
the armies of the Southern States. 'E.<
