dc.description.abstract Letters of General Joseph R. Hawley to Charles Dudley Warner, The Hartford Daily Times, January 08, 1930. Matters were quiescent before Richmond as 1865 dawned and Hawley had time for considerable letter writing. He had convinced himself that Governor Buckingham should be re-elected and so wrote Warner for his guidance in the conduct of The Press. Some of Hawley's own friends, led by Mark Howard, insurance president and capitalist, wanted to nominate the general for congressman from the First district and had tried to interest him in the proposition. Hawley was opposed to it and consulted Gideon Welles who agreed with him. Hawley was enjoying added responsibility and honor. His friend, General Terry, had Keen assigned to other duty by Grant, and Hawley accurately suspected it meant another attempt to take Wilmington, N. C. Hawley's own brigade was sent on the expedition, and he regretted his inability to go with it, but he had been assigned to command Terry's division, the First, and could not go. en_US
