The Senate vote was more decided than I had expected in my favor. Bayard, Buckalew, Davis, Dixon, Doolittle & Patterson, Johnson's son in law, were the only negatives. Fessenden is said to have made a great speech. I came to the office at half past ten o'clock this morning. General Grant has removed his own papers and left the key with the Adjutant General to be given to me. I sent for him and took possession. What Johnson's next move will be I do not know but I may be removed any how & the sooner the better. Yours truly,Edwin M. StantonHon Edwards PierrepontHistorical BackgroundOnly hours before the Senate voted to keep him in office, Stanton rejects President Andrew Johnson's dismissal of him under the terms of the Tenure in Office Act.The reference to Ulysses Grant touches on a particularly dramatic aspect of the affair. Johnson had thought his offer to name Grant as Stanton's replacement would make the dismissal more palatable to Senate Republicans. But in the event the Senate decided to keep Stanton, he extracted from Grant a promise to retain control of the office and not to relinquish it to Stanton under any circumstance. Over the course of Sunday, January 12 and Monday, January 13, Grant became increasingly uneasy about Johnson's instructions. He risked exposing himself to a $10,000 fine for violating the Tenure in Office Act. As soon as Grant got word early on January 14 of the Senate vote, he dropped his keys off with the Adjutant General and sent a messenger to inform Johnson of his actions. A bitter public dispute erupted between Johnson and Grant concerning just what had been promised by whom. Meanwhile Stanton - keys in hand - bolted his inner office door and locked the hallway door shut. Furniture and other articles were added to a defiant if somewhat theatrical hallway barricade.Edwards Pierrepont (1817-1892) was a Connecticut-born lawyer and jurist, who from 1862 through 1868 was a member of the military commission for the cases of state prisoners in federal military custody.WITH EDWIN M.
