The letter says: McClellan staid with Burnside that evening, unfolding to him all his plans of the campaign. He has been giving the field immediately to report at Trenton, in compliance with the order. Burnside, reluctant to part with him so soon, urged him to remain a little longer-the id him, "I'll remain just as long as Burn. wants me." "No you won't," replied Burnside, "for if you do you will remain with us altogether." On Sunday evening a most touching scene took place.
