    The following text is presented here in complete form, as it originally appeared in print. Spelling and typographical errors have been preserved as in the original.
    Executive Mansion,
    December 14, 1861.
     
    Rev. Dr. A. Fischel 
    My dear Sir: 
    I find that there are several particulars in which the present law in regard to Chaplains is supposed to be deficient, all of which I now design presenting to the appropriate Committee of Congress. I shall try to have a new law broad enough to cover what is desired by you in behalf of the Israelites. 
    Yours truly,
    A. LINCOLN.
