Doc. 62.-Hoisting the Black flag — official correspondence and reports.
General S. D. Lee to General Cooper.
headquarters Department Alabama, Mississippi, and East Louisiana, Meridian, June 30, 1864
General: I have the honor to transmit copies of correspondence between General Washburn, U. S. A., General Forrest, and myself, which I consider very important, and should be laid before the Department.
It will be my endeavor to avoid, as far as is consistent with my idea of the dignity of my position, resorting to such an extremity as the black flag; and the onus shall be with the Federal commander.
I would like that the onus be put where it properly belongs, before the public, should the extremity arise.
The correspondence is not complete yet, and the Department will be informed of the result at the earliest practicable moment.
I am, General, yours respectfully, S. D. Lee, Lieutenant-General. General S. Cooper, A. and L G., Richmond, Va.
General Forrest to Genera
