A member of the Seventh regiment, in a letter to his father, writes: “I heard a good anecdote of Gen. Scott yesterday. He was asked what he intended to do with Jefferson Davis. In answer, he merely put up his open hand, and gradually closed his fingers, till his hand was clenched. He could not have given a more expressive answer.” --Idem.
