"We protest that Mr Edwards is not, or ought not to be permitted to make such contracts, and we respectfully ask that he be assigned to duty, elsewhere, and be required to contract directly with honest men, and not indirectly with thieves and scoundrels."

Speaking of crazy, how does this support your crazy claim that Lincoln wanted to forcibly expel 4 million black men, women, and children?
