Excerpt from War Government, Federal and State: In Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, and Indiana, 1861-1865

The Civil War will afford ample ground for historical research and study for generations to come. Massa chusetts is far ahead of other States in the preservation and arrangement of all records, especially those in man uscript. Her shoestring files contain the original story of the stalwart doings in those days, comprising several hundred volumes of manuscript, well arranged and kept under lock and key. Careful search was made here; and I was indebted to Governor Crane, Mr. Ham lin, and the other officials, for constant courtesy. The archives at Albany and at Harrisburg were examined. The excellent biography by Foulke sufficiently lighted up and colored the extensive correspondence of Morton as it was set forth in the Official Records of the Re bellion. This enormous collection of printed matter is a mine of crude ore, and from it will be drawn the maturing history of our pregnant Civil War.
