When did Dahlgren meet with Lincoln?

1 Feb 1864. Ulric arrived at the White House at 11:00, waited until 16:00 before Lincoln met with him (while Lincoln received a shave).

Go Falcons!

Shaving often makes me want to have someone killed, too. </sarcasm>

There is no evidence that Lincoln was involved in Dahlgren's plans.

Yes indeed. Great job against last night against the Eagles. If Jenkins and Roddy White can continue to improve, the Birds may end the season with a pretty good down field passing attack and be a much more dangerous team than last year.

But this is even before the abortive Butler raid. The usual chronology has is that it was after the failure of that raid, on Feb. 7, that Kilipatrick pitched his idea (which didn't include killing Davis et. al.) on the 12th.
