Abstract
Letters of General Joseph R. Hawley to Charles Dudley Warner, The Hartford Daily Times, January 13, 1930. Hawley remained in the service longer than he had expected. There was much to be done and it was not easy to spare men of his character and administrative ability. Indeed, there were few of his legal training and experience. Even his political activities contributed to his usefulness and General Terry leaned upon him as he always had. The sword which was bought for Hawley by a public subscription was presented to him in Richmond, August 4, 1865. Hawley had planned to come home to receive it, but the problems of reconstruction kept him so busy he was unable to do so, and a presentation committee composed of Marshall Jewel, Colonel George P. Bissell and J. G. Rathbun, went down to make the presentation.
