Title
Abraham Lincoln to Charles Sumner
Description
On the morning of May 14, 1863, President Lincoln invites Senator Charles Sumner of Massachsetts to come to breakfast with General Hooker at 8:30 AM. Some believe that this frantic get-together and others like it most probably had something to do with Lincoln's notion to suspend habeas corpus.
