I Hate Newspapermen. They Come Into Camp And Pick Up Their Camp Rumors And Print Them As Facts. I Regard Them As Spies, Which, In Truth, They Are.

My Aim, Then, Was To Whip The Rebels, To Humble Their Pride, To Follow Them To Their Inmost Recesses, And Make Them Fear And Dread Us. Fear Is The Beginning Of Wisdom.

The Gold Can Have But One Use - The Purchase Of Arms And Ammunition... Of Course, I Have Respected All Permits By Yourself Or The Secretary Of The Treasury, But In These New Cases (swarms Of Jews), I Have Stopped It.
