Army Surgeon: Heard the latest? Captain Robert G. Shaw: What's that? Army Surgeon: Well, I heard it from a friend who's a dispatch rider, who got it from one of Stanton's clerks in the War Office. He says Lincoln is gonna issue an Emancipation Proclamation. Gonna free the slaves. Captain Robert G. Shaw: What? Army Surgeon: Well, maybe not the ones in the border states but he's gonna free some of 'em, anyway. Captain Robert G. Shaw: My God. Army Surgeon: Yeah, he said he would have done it sooner, only he was waiting for a big victory, which is, I guess what this is.
