451 "the utmost fidelity": CW, 6:444449. I believe that the editors of The Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln erred in a.s.signing the tentative date of September 14 to this ma.n.u.script, thinking that it was related to the proclamation of that date suspending the writ of habeas corpus. Lincoln's argument deals less with habeas corpus than with the const.i.tutionality and fairness of the conscription act. The date, August 15, 1863, tentatively a.s.signed the doc.u.ment by Nicolay and Hay seems more plausible.
451 problems in Missouri: Affairs in Missouri were so complex that only a brief summary can be attempted here. For a thoughtful modern account of Missouri problems, see William E. Gienapp, "Abraham Lincoln and the Border States," Journal of the Abraham Lincoln a.s.sociation 13 (1992): 1346. Michael Fellman, Inside War: The Guerrilla Conflict in Missouri During the American Civil War (New York: Oxford University Press, 1989), is a richly detailed study.
