Lyman writes, "I have read with interest your three Gettysburg articles. They are in all ways admirable. Especially I thank you for your judicious justification of Gen. Meade." Asks if there is any chance for Hunt's bill, possibly referring to a congressional bill advocated by Hunt pertaining to military retirement pay and rank. Lyman had served as an aide-de-camp to General George Gordon Meade during the Civil War, and as a Representative from Massachusetts 1883-1884.
