PRELIMINARY EGOTISM.
HIS Bibliography may fairly be said to be a catalogue
of a collection of Lincoln matter at present in my
possession, as' I have everything mentioned, except
a very few pamphlets, two of the engravings and a
few of the medals. It is, without doubt, the largest
Lincoln collection extant.
I did not commence this collection until a year and a half after
Mr. Lincoln's death, though always an admirer of him. Strangers
and friends have kindly contributed ; but of course the greater part
has been made by personal diligent search and purchase.
It has been pursued with the assiduity begotten of a heartfelt
interest in the subject. Every book and print store that seemed at
all likely to contain matter relating thereto was ransacked, aud no
opportunity to increase and perfect my collection neglected. While
traveling on my ordinary business, a half hour's stay at any place
offering a prospect of additional matter, has always been devoted to
search. When " snow bound, " or otherwise detained, the opportu-
nity has been seized to add to my collection.
During the past four years I have written over 2,000 letters on
the subject.
I have a large lot of newspapers, printed matter, pictures, &c,
bearing upon Lincoln, yet which would not come within the scope
of this catalogue, and of course not mentioned. In addition I have
a letter in Mr. Lincoln's handwriting written the day before he took
his seat in congi'ess 1847. The first survey paper made out by him
in 1836. A foolscap leaf from his copy-book made in 1824. His
autograph to a subscription for my Washington Directory 1864.
Some writing to the secretary of war, March, 1865. A memorandum
book of voters' names in Springfield. Some other writing and auto-
graphs. A piece of cloth used to stop the flow of blood from his
wound. A couple of feathers from the pillow he died on. A piece
of floor oil cloth stained with his blood. A piece of wall paper

from the theatre-box in which he was shot. An old silver watch
chain that he wore for twenty years. A plaster cast of his right
hand made in 1860. A letter from President Johnson to Mrs. Lincoln
at the request of congress upon transmitting their resolutions to her
on the death of Mr. Lincoln. This letter is a quarto page in german
text with mourning border, all printed with a pen, and signed by
Mr. Johnson.
I have also a large number of letters from authors of eulogies and
biographies of Mr. Lincoln and from others, many of which are
interesting. Besides over fifty photographs, and a variety of other
matter.
Mr. Charles H. Hart, at one time contemplated issuing a biblio-
graphy of books published on the occasion of Mr. Lincoln's death, and
had taken pains to give the text and number of copies printed. Upon
learning his willingness to transfer this information to me, I threw
out such titles in my list as he had mentioned in his, and gave him
a place in my book.

FAITII, HOPE AND LOVE.
I am loth to close. We are not enemies, but friends. We must
not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not
break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory.
STRETCHING FROM EVERY BATTLE FIELD AND PATRIOT GRAVE TO
EVERY LIVING HEART AND HEARTH-STONE ALL OVER THIS BROAD
LAND, WILL YET SWELL THE CHORUS OF THE UNION, WHEN AGAIN
TOUCHED, AS SURELY THEY WILL BE, BY THE BETTER ANGELS OF
our nature. — Abraham Lincoln, March, 1861.
Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty
scourge of war may pass speedily away. Yet if God wills that it
continue until all the wealth piled by the bondman's two hundred
and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop
of blood drawn with the lash shall.be paid by another drawn with
the sword, as was said three thousand years ago; so still it must be
said, that the judgments of the Lord are true aud righteous altogether.
With malice towards none, with charity for all, with firmness in
the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish
the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wound; to care for him
who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow and his orphans;
to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among
ourselves, and with all nations. — Abraham Lincoln, 1865.
[Hon. John J. Crittenden^ of Ky., 1861.]
There is a niche in the Temple of Fame, a niche
near .to Washington, which should be occupied by the
statue of him who shall save his country. Mr Lin-
coln has a mighty destiny. It is for him to be but a
President of the people of the United States, and there
Avill his statue be.
[Hon. Owen Lovejoy in reply to the above.]
There IS a niche for Abraham Lincoln in Freedom's
holy fane. In that niche he shall stand proudly, glo-
riously, with shattered fetters, and broken chains and
slave whips beneath his feet. His name shall not
only be enrolled in this earthly temple, but it will be
traced on the living stones of that temple, which rears
itself amidst the thrones of heaven. This is a fame
worth living for ; aye, more, it is a fame worth dying
for, even though that death led through the blood
of Gethsemane and the agony of the accursed tree.
No pen
Will ever be able to do justice
to the memory
of
Abraham Lincoln.
lion. Isaac N. Arnold, to A
Mr Lincoln was good, kind, tender, noble, lovely,
The very loveliest of men.
He was a man of great fidelity, integrity, and honor ;
He was a great, noble, strong man,
The greatest, noblest, and strongest of men.
He had great virtue, great broad toleration, and was pure,
I think he is the finest American character yet born.
The man is not yet understood,
His history is not known ;
And the man not generally appreciated,
As I see him ;
And as the world will see him,
Before fifty years roll by.
God bless Abraham.

ABRAHAM LOCOLI.1
BY ANDREW BOYD.
I know that there is a God, and that He hates injustice and slavery.
I see the storm coming, and I know that His hand is in it.
If He has a place and work for me — and I think He has — I believe I am
ready.
I am nothing, but Truth is everything.
I know I am right, because I know that liberty is right, for Christ teaches
it, and Christ is God.
I have told them that a house divided against itself cannot stand; and
Christ and reason say the same ; and they will find it so.
*********
God cares, and humanity cares, and I care ; and with God's help I shall
not fail.
I MAT NOT SEE THE END ; BUT IT WILL COME.
Abraham Lincoln, 1860.
T is not without reason we preserve even the slightest
memorial of the great and good who have passed away.
The merest trifles may have a distinct value of their
own in history, as it is from this ive reproduce in our
minds the character of the great and noble men
away in the long years and centuries gone by. The
idiosyncracies of the great, their ways, their trifling peculiarities of
manner, and habit, or familiar phrases, all go to illustrate character,
and are of no little importance to the historian. To be thus minutely
criticised is one of the penalties paid for a niche in the temple of fame.
How few characters will bear that scrutinizing analysis so well as
Abraham Lincoln's? Every little incident of his life, every oddity of
manner or phrase, his very jests and humorous stories served but
to bring out the great, warm, human heart of the man who knew no
guile; but so nearly fulfilled the divine injunction, " Be ye wise as
serpents ; but harmless as doves."

As a prophet is not without honor save in his own country, it may
be half said a great man is not without honor save in his own gene-
ration. Washington who justly occupies to-day so lofty a place in
our history, had detractors amongst his contemporaries almost if not
fully as bitter as Lincoln, who, when political jealousy shall have
died and the venom of his enemies, who are also the enemies of
humanity, be spent, will take his place in history as the savior of the
republic, and the liberator of 4,000,000 of the human race from
bondage.
There can be no incident in the life of such a man, no trait of
character, no peculiarity of feature too trivial for a place in history : he
has filled the eye of the world, and the hearts of millions not his
countrymen. He has illustrated as no other has done the institu-
tions of his country ; and demonstrated to the world the possibili-
ties that await every American citizen.
Abraham Lincoln was born in Hardin county, Kentucky, on the
12th February, 1809. His parent's names were Thomas and Nancy
(Sparrow*) Lincoln.
He was born in a log cabin in obscurity and poverty, having no
education, beyond one year's schooling, excepting what he attained
by his own unassisted efforts. When quite a young man he made one
or two trips on the Mississippi as & flat-boatman, and split rails for
fencing his father's farm ; hence the sobriquet, Rail splitter, by
which he was designated in political campaigns.
The character of the man was foreshadowed in the boy who was
discouraged by no difficulties ; but when the day's work was done, in-
stead of seeking rest or recreation, would often lie at full length upon
the hearth in his humble home, and by the blazing fire read and
study that he might take his place among men. The high sense
of honor which ever characterized the man was illustrated by an in-
cident of his boyhood : he had borrowed a life of Washington which
was nearly destroyed by the rain beating in through the window
upon it during the night, and " pulled fodder" for two days to repay
the owner for the damage done his book.
F. Hanks, second cousins of Mr. Lincoln, inform me that she was sometimes
called Nancy Hanks from the fact that her Aunt Nancy Hanks raised her ;
her father's name was Henry Sparrow and her mother's name Lucinda Hanks.
This no doubt accounts for the discrepancy about Mr. Lincoln's mother's
name. (Mr. Dennis F. Hanks writes me that her mother's name was Lucy,
as does also Rev. Elias Nason of North Billerica, Mass. While Mr. John
Hanks writes that it was Lucinda.)
ABRAHAM LINCOLN. 3
He surmounted all the disadvantages of his position by energy
and persevering study until he became a lawyer ; and in his practice
was ever on the side of mercy and justice. When a great politi-
cal party met in convention in 1860, to nominate a candidate for presi-
dent of the United States, at a critical period, when it was felt that the
fate of the country depended upon the patriotism and discretion of the
chief magistrate, they selected him from among great and well known
statesmen, and made him their standard bearer; and with distin-
guished competitors at the head of opposing parties for the high ofSce,
he was the victorious elected, and became a ruler over more than
30,000,000 of people. The passage from his home in Springfield,
111., commenced on his birthday 1861, to the National Capitol, was a
continuous ovation ; all along the route he was welcomed with an
enthusiasm perhaps never exceeded on any similar occasion. When
approaching Washington it was deemed necessary by his friends
that he should hasten secretly by night through a border state to
escape a plot to assassinate him.
At the expiration of his presidential term he was reelected by
an overwhelming majority. During the four years terrible civil war
he remained anchored faithful and true to his trust ; undaunted by
reverses ; unswayed by the counsels of the timid or temporizing ;
and, fully trusting at all times in God for wisdom, looked unflinch-
ingly to the end ; he harmonized factions among his political friends,
and dealt mercifully with his enemies; he emancipated a poor down-
trodden race that for centuries was compelled to labor and to wait;
he bore modestly his triumphs over the enemies of his country; he
brought the war to a successful close, and saved the Union from dis-
solution, perpetuating its sovereign strength for all time to come.
All these are facts which every youth in our country is acquainted
with, and there is scarcely a being, however humble or lowly, in the
whole wide world who has not heard the name of Abraham Lin-
coln, the savior of the Republic, which has been aptly called " half
brother of the world," and who knows how at the end of its gigantic
struggle he was cruelly and brutally murdered.
This deed was committed on Good Friday, April 14th, 1865,
about 10 i o'clock in the evening while he was sitting in a private
box at a theatre on Tenth street, in Washington, whither he had
gone by request; near him sat Mrs. Lincoln and a young lady and
gentleman. The assassin entered from behind unobserved, and shot
him in the head, the ball entering at the left side, and, penetrating
the brain, lodged over the right eye. He was removed to a house
4 ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
opposite ; and never spoke after the cruel shot, dying the next
morning at twenty-two minutes after seven o'clock.
" This pistol shot jarred the continent more than all Columbiads."
The whole land was draped in mourning for his death ; friends
and acquaintances greeted each other solemnly in the streets, as if
with mutual condolences for the loss of a friend ; every loyal heart was
saddened, and expressions of sympathy from the crowned heads and
their subjects from all parts of the world, came to us for the loss
of so honest and humane a ruler.
Sermons occasioned by the event were preached in nearly every
loyal pulpit ; hundreds were reproduced in the newspapers of the
day and in pamphlet form, abroad, as well as at home.
Mr. Lincoln's remains left Washington on the 21st of April, pass-
ing over about the same route he had taken on his way to the
capital in 1861 ; the distance was over 1,500 miles, and about sixteen
days were occupied in bearing the body to his old home in Illinois,
where it was interred on the 4th of May.
The funeral pageant was immense. It was attended by a nation of
mourners; in some cities where the remains were exposed to view,
people once in the line had to wait for hours to obtain the last look
upon the face of the beloved and revered dead, so great was the
throng.
In Washington, over 40,000 persons viewed the remains. In
New York, they filed by the coffin on either side to the number of
80 and 100 in a minute, and it is said more than 150,000 people
paid this last tribute of respect and love, while thousands were una-
ble to approach.
The number was little less in Philadelphia; and in Springfield,
111., was estimated at 75,000 persons.
It is not possible to believe that any conqueror or hero ever had a
grander and more triumphal march to the grave, or more genuinely
impressive than did Mr. Lincoln.
At the depots, at the crossings and all along the road sides,
people came with uncovered heads to witness the train go by that
carried the remains of this good man.
Before Mr. Lincoln had ceased to live, the secretary of war had
every avenue of escape guarded, and directed search to be made for
the murderer and his accomplices. More than $200,000 reward was
offered for their capture ; and subsequently §210,000 was offered by
the executive for the arrest of others said to be implicated. The
murderer was pursued, and in a few days overtaken in a barn in
ABRAHAM LINCOLN. 5
Virginia, and, refusing to surrender, was shot; he died in great
agony a few hours afterwards. Eight other of the conspirators were
captured and tried ; four of them were hanged on the 7th of July
(one of them a woman). Three were sentenced to hard labor for
life and one for six years. One died, and the remainder were par-
doned by Andrew Johnson a day or two before the expiration of his
presidential term. A son of the poor unfortunate woman hanged,
had fled ; but was captured in Egypt about a year and a half after
the assassination, was brought back, tried and acquitted.
All the above facts are fresh in the minds of our people ; but it
was deemed not inappropriate to put on record in a work of this
kind a brief sketch of the life of him who occasioned so many pub-
lications, to enumerate and describe which this catalogue is issued.
The hand of divine providence is discerned in the lifting up of
such a man wben the destiny of the republic trembled in the ba-
lance ; and the day star of the oppressed all over the world seemed
about to go out in blood with the disruption of our country. The
hand of the assassin, long upraised, was staid until his mission was
accomplished, when it seemed the will of the great ruler of all that
he should wear this martyr's crown.
It was his time to be president at a period when he could scarcely
have been otherwise than a great central point of notice, and of
remembrance to posterity, even though his life had not been taken ;
that baptism in blood, however, served to place his name as high as
the stars, as that of a man who had been murdered for his integrity.
It gave him a crown, and made him a figure of admiration for
future generations ! a figure of almost unapproachable grandeur.
His great tenderness of heart made him shrink from punishing
even the guilty ; and he ever sought for some extenuating circum-
stance that "justice might be tempered with mercy." His ina-
bility to resist an appeal for clemency almost amounted to weakness ;
a mother pleading for the life of her son he could not deny, though
he would afterwards say, " perhaps I have done wrong, but I have
made that poor womanhappy." Again he said " Some of our generals
complain that I impair discipline and subordination in the army by
my pardons and respites, but it makes one rested, after a hard day's
work, if I can find some good excuse for saving a man's life, and I
go to bed happy as I think how joyous the signing of my name will
make him and his family and his friends." The Hon Schuyler Col-
fax says, " Calling upon the president one morning in the winter of
1863, I found him looking more than usually pale and careworn,
6 ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
and inquired the reason. He replied, with the bad news he had
received at a late hour the previous night, which had not yet been
communicated to the press, he had not closed his eyes or hreahfastcd :
and with an expression I shall never forget, he exclaimed, ' How
willingly woidd I exchange places to-day with the soldier who sleeps
on the ground in the army of the Potomac' "
His ear and heart were ever open to the pleadings of distress ;
the humblest citizen was never denied an audience, and at unreasona-
ble hours of the night even an interview has been granted when the
case did not easily admit of delay.
It was my good fortune to see Mr. Lincoln many times during his
life, and when his remains were being borne to the grave I gazed for
the last time upon the face of the man I honored and loved.

INTRODUCTION.
I5Y C. II. HART.
Five years ago the nation was called upon to give its utterance upon the
fiendish crime committed at its national capital, on the person of its chief
magistrate ; and five years ago the writer of this monograph designed the
present work to preserve and memoralize those utterances. To many this
volume will appear to be nothing but a bald catalogue, of little value and
less interest ; a production showing very meagre results for five years of
diligent labor expanded in its preparation. Yet so it is, that in the field of
literature, the bibliographers' task is that requiring the greatest patience
and labor, with the least impressive results, as is quaintly said by Anthony
a Wood, in the preface to his History of Oxford : " A painfull work it is I'll
assure you, and more than difficult, wherein what toyle hath been taken, as
no man thiuketh, so no man believeth, but he hath made the triall," ' But
is it therefore of the least value? Is it nothing to have preserved for future
ages, a record of those products of the press, called forth by one of the
greatest epochs in the nation's life ; to erect a library within one cover for
the true historian, the one of fifty or a hundred years hence, to make choice
of the foundation whereupon to build his more enduring monument. It is
with this aim alone that the Bibliographia Lincolniana has been executed.
It was at first intended that it2 should accompany the " Life of President
Lincoln," to be written by his old friend and law partner, the Hon. William
H. Herndon, of Springfield, Illinois, but this gentleman has desisted from his
work, having decided that the time has not yet arrived for the proper ap-
preciation of such a work as his materials and knowledge of the subject
would produce. It therefore appears in its present form. It had been the
intention of the writer to add a biographical memoir, prepared solely from
the works named in the following catalogue, giving- extracts and selections
from each ; but his manuscript prepared after this manner, was accidentally
lost in its transmission to the printer, so that the following sketch must be
accepted in its stead, his time not allowing him the labor of producing a
duplicate of the first.
Abraham Lincoln was born on the 12th of February, 1809, in Hardin, now
Larue county, Kentucky, near Nolin creek, about a mile and a half from
Hodgenville, the present county seat of Larue County. His parents weraex-
ceedingly poor and illiterate, the father being neither able to read nor write,
while the mother couldread but not write. Of his progenitors the following
facts are gleaned from the able eulogy, by Rev. Elias Nason, of North
Billerica, delivered before the New England Historic-Genealogical Society,
and Hon. Solomon Lincoln of Hingham, 's "Notes on the Lincoln Family of
Massachusetts."
1 When I state that about twelve hundred letters were written, and about, eight him
dred letters and pamphlets received, in the preparation of this volume, it will be seen
that my assertion is not greatly exaggerated.
2 I allude, of course only to my own portion of this work.
10 INTRODUCTION.
The line of Mr. Lincoln's ancestry lias been followed with certainty only
to his great-grandfather, who emigrated about the middle of the last cen-
tury from Berks county, Pennsylvania to Rockingham county, Virginia.
Where the Lincolns of Berks county came from, no record has as yet di-
vulged, but they are believed to have been Quakers, and to have escaped
from the intolerance of Massachusetts, to the friendly soil of Pennsylvania.
The argument which tends most strongly to bind the ancestry of the late
president to that of the distinguished Massachusetts Lincolns, is the great
similarity of the Chistian names found in the two families, and one of these
by no means a common one. Hingham, Mass., was formally settled Sep-
tember 18, 1635, by the Rev. Peter Hobart and twenty nine others, who
drew house lots on that day. In the next year house lots were granted to
Thomas Lincoln the miller, Thomas Lincoln the weaver, and Thomas Lin-
coln the cooper, and later still or in 1637, to Samuel Lincoln brother of
Thomas the weaver. Samuel Lincoln, of this family the fourth original
settler, had four sons : Samuel, Daniel, Mordecai and Thomas. Mordecai
Lincoln had a son Mordecai, born April 24th, 1686, and another named Abra-
ham, born Jan. 13th, 1689. Here we have the three names, Mordecai, Thomas
and Abraham in frequent and familiar use. In Hopps's History of Berks and
Lebanon Countit s, Pi nnsylvania, we find that among the taxable inhabitants
of Exeter, Berks county, soon after its organization in 1752, were Mordecai
Lincoln and Abraham Lincoln ; also, that Thomas Lincoln was living in
Reading as early as 1757, and that Abraham Lincoln was one of the repre-
sentatives from Berks county, in 1782-5 and a member of the convention for
the framing of the constitution of the state in 1789-90. In a correspondence
held in 1848 between the late president while a member of congress, and
Hon. Solomon Lincoln of Hingham, the former stated : " My father's name
is Thomas, my grandfather's was Abraham, the same of my own. My
grandfather went from Rockingham county in Virginia, to Kentucky about
the year 1782, and two years afterwards was killed by the Indians. We
have a vague tradition that my great-grandfather went from Pennsylvania
to Virginia, and that he was a Quaker. Further than this, I have never
heard anything. It may do no harm to say that ' Abraham ! and ' Mordecai '
are common names in our family." In a subsequent letter, he says : " I
have mentioned that my grandfather's name was Abraham. He had, as, I
think, I have heard four brothers, Isaac, Jacob, Thomas and Joun. He had
three sons, Mordecai, Josiah and Thomas, the last my father. My uncle
Mordecai had three sons, Abraham, James and Mordecai ; u
several daughters and an only son Thomas. My father ha
myself of course. This is all I know certainly on the suhjc
is, however, my father's understanding that Abraham, Monde
are old family names of ours." At the present day the abov
mises are all that can be offered in regard to the connection <
lies, and we shall have to wait for time to develop the hid.de
to prove the descent from the same source.
Thomas Lincoln, the father of the president, was born in Virginia about the
year 1778, so that he was a mere infant at the period of his father's removal
to Kentucky, and not much more when in 1784, while at work in the field, a
short distance from his cabin, he was stealthily approached by an Indian,
and shot dead. In 1806, when Thomas was in his twenty-eighth year, he
married Nancy Hanks,1 like himself a Virginian by birth, and took her to
the humble log cabin, where three years later was born the future president
of the United States. They had three children, a daughter who married
Aaron Grigsby when she was but fourteen years of age, and died shortly
afterwards, and two sons, Abraham, named from his grandfather, and
Thomas, who died in infancy, In 1816, wdien Abraham was but seven

INTRODUCTION. 11
years old, "his father removed from Kentucky and settled in Spencer county,
Indiana, where three years later his mother died, the mother of whom in
after years, with tears in his eyes, he said : " All that I am or hope to be, I
owe to my angel mother." Her grave lies, unmarked, near the village of
Gentry ville, Spencer county, Indiana ; but the first use that her reverent
son put the little education he had acquired after her death, was to indite
an epistle to an itinerant minister of the Baptist church, by the name of
Elkin, whom he had once heard preach before his immigration from Ken-'
tucky, asking him to come and perform religious services over her grave,
which he accordingly did about a twelve month after she had been laid to rest.
Although it has been stated, and on no poorer authority than the late presi-
dent himself, that the aggregate of all the school education of his life could
be embraced within the limits of one year, still it seems that in this short space
of time he was under the charge of no less than five teachers, two, Riney and
Caleb Hazel in Kentucky, and Andrew Crawford, Sweeney and Dorsey in
Indiana. It is to Andrew Crawford that the story is told of the president's
" pulling fodder," for three days, to pay for a Life of Washington. It hap-
pened in this wise : Lincoln borrowed from his teacher a copy of Ramsey's
Life of Washington, which he carelessly left in an open window, when a
shower coming on it was drenched and nearly ruined. Hastening to his
teacher in great grief and alann, he explained the accident and offered to work
out the worth of the book's damage, which he did in the manner detailed,
and was rewarded for his behavior by being presented with the book. The
two works with which he became best acquainted in his youth, were ^Esop's
Ft ib? n and Banyan's Pilgrim's Progress. And who can follow the record
of his life without easily detecting the effect they had upon the develop-
ment of two of his distinguishing characteristics — his legend of anecdote and
reverence for religion.
In the autumn of 1819, somewhat more than a year after the death of
Abraham's mother, his father married again, this time a widow lady with
three children, Mrs. Sally Johnston of Elizabethtown, Kentucky. I think
it is to this lady more than to his own mother that he is indebted for his
good early training and formation of character. And from the following
letter in possession of the writer written to his step-brother, her own son,
it will be seen that he was much more chary of her rights than her own
flesh and blood. It bears the superscription, " John D. Johnston, Charles-
ton, Coles county, Illinois," and is dated, " Springfield, Nov. "2~>, 1851," and
reads as follows :
Dear Brother: Your letter of the 22d is just received. Your proposal
about selling the East forty acres of land is all that I want or could claim
for myself, but 1 am not satisfied with it on Mother's account. I want her
to have her living, and 1 feel that it is my duty, to some extent, to see that
she is not wronged. She had a right of dower (that is the use of one-third
for life) in the other two forties ; but it seems she has already let you take
that, hook and line. She now has the use of the whole of the East forty, as
long as she lives ; and if it be sold of course she is entitled to the interest
on all the money it brings as long as she lives ; but you propose to sell it
for three hundred dollars, take one hundred away with you, and leave her
two hundred, at 8 per cent, making her the enormous sum of sixteen dollars
a year. Xow, if you are satisfied with treating her in that way, I am not.
It is true, that you are to have that forty for two hundred dollars, (it Mother's
death ; but you are not to have it before. I am confident that land can be
made to produce for Mother at least $30 a year, and I cannot, to oblige any
living person consent that she shall be put on an allowance of sixteen dol-
lars a year. Yours, &e.,
A. Lincoln.
This lady in her eightieth year was still living at the time of the president's
peath, near Farmington, Coles county, Illinois.
12 INTRODUCTION.
At the age of nineteen Mr. Lincoln made Mb first " strike out from home,"
taking charge of a flat boat and its cargo for the sugar plantations near New
Orleans. During the laborious voyage he and his only companion, a son of
his employer, successfully defended themselves against an attack made at
night b,y a band of negroes for the purposes of plunder, and escaping un-
hurt reached their destination, disposed of their freight and returned to their
homes in safety. In March, 1830, Abraham having just completed his
majority, started with his father and family from their Indiana home and
after a tedious journey of fifteen days halted on the banks of the Sangamon
river, near Decatur, Macon county, Illinois. It was at this era in his life that
lie acquired the epithet afterwards used towards him of " the rail-splitter of
Illinois," he having split rails enough to fence in a lot of ten acres, the di-
mensions of his father's new home. Here, however, the family did not remain
long. Finding the Locality unhealthy they removed to Coles county in the
same state, where old Thomas Lincoln died January 17th, 1851, in his
seventy-third year. Having cut entirely loose from his family after their
removal to Coles county, we next find Lincoln hired by a man named Ofliitt
to build a flat boat at twelve dollars per month, which when completed he
took to New Orleans, with a drove of hogs, for his employer. On his return
his employer placed him in charge of a store and mill at New Salem, Menard
county, Illinois. It was while young Lincoln was engaged in the duties of
tending store, that he borrowed from an acquaintance a copy of Kirkliam's
English grammar and commenced its st udy. The identical book used by Mr.
Lincoln is now in the possession of Capt. R. R. Rutledge, with whose father
Mr. Lincoln lived about this time. His name, together with several remarks,
originally appeared on the fly leaf, but the leaf has been torn out. In this
connection it may be of interest to state, that the writer has in his possession
a page of Mr. Lincoln's copy-book made in 1824, when he was fifteen years
old. It is of ordinary foolscap size, and has written across the bottom in
large characters, " Abraham Lincoln's Book." This interesting relic was
presented to the writer, together with many others of a similar character, by
his valued friend the Hon. William H. Herndon of Springfield, Illinois, to
whom he is indebted for much valuable information.
It was in the spring of 1832, that the skirmishes with the Sac Indians
began, known in history as the Black Hawk war, whereupon Governor
Reynolds, of Illinois, issued his call for volunteers, and among the first to
offer themselves was Abraham Lincoln, who was almost unanimously elected
captain of a company, formed in Menard county, from among his friends and
neighbors. There was no fighting to be done", so the captain and his com-
pany had no chance of distinguishing themselves on the field, except in the
manner described in the following extract from a speech delivered by Mr.
Lincoln, when a member of congress, upon the nomination of General Cass,
for the presidency, — the general's friends having endeavored to endow their
hero with a military reputation. "By the way. Mr. Speaker." said Mr.
Lincoln, " do you know I am a military hero ? Yes, sir, in the days of the
Black Hawk war, I fought, bled and* came away. Speaking of General
Cass's career reminds me of my own. I was not at Stillnian's defeat, but
I was about as near it as Cass to Hull's surrender : and like him I saw the
place very soon afterward. It is quite certain I did not break my sword,
for I had none to break ; but I bent my musket pretty badly on one occasion.
* * If General Cass went in advance of me in picking whortleberries, I
guess I surpassed him in charges upon the wild onions. If he saw any
live, fighting Indians, it was more that I did, but I had a good many bloody
struggles with the mosquitoes; and although I never fainted from loss of
blood, 1 can truly say I was often very hungry."
Mr. Lincoln returned home but about ten days before the state election
and was immediately solicited to become a candidate for the legislature, on
the Clay ticket, to which position however he was not elected. It was dur-
ing this canvas that he made his first political speech, and sufficiently is it

characteristic of the man to rind a place here. He said : " Gentlemen, fel-
low-citizens, I presume you all know who I am, I am humble Abraham
Lincoln. I have been solicited by many friends to become a candidate for
the legislat ure. My politics are short and sweet. I am in favor of a national
bank. I am in favor of the internal improvement system, and a high pro-
tective tariff. These are my sentiments and political principles. If elected
I shall be thankful, if not it will be all the same." After the election Mr.
Lincoln entered into partnership with a man named Berry, in the town of
New Salem ; but the latter proving a wild, dissipated fellow.the business soon
became a wreck. He was then appointed postmaster of the town by Presi-
dent Jackson, and about the same time became deputy surveyor of the
county. Not having the slightest knowledge of surveying, he borrowed
the necessary books from his chief, and after much arduous study procured
a compass and chain and entered upon his duties. He had not been long
engaged in his new employment, when his implements were attached for a
debt of the old firm and sold, but generously purchased by a friend of his,
one James Short, and gratuitously given back. In 1834, he became again a
candidate for the legislature, and this time was elected by the highest vote
cast for any candidate. To the same legislature was chosen Major John T.
Stuart, whom Mr. Lincoln had known as a captain in the Black Hawk war.
Major Stuart was one of the then leaders of the Springfield bar, and urged
and encouraged Mr. Lincoln to study the law and make it his profession ;
enforcing his advice by offering him the loan of any law books he might
have in his possession. Mr. Lincoln was not loth to accept this offer, and
at the close of the session returned to his home in New Salem " with a load
of borrowed legal lore," and began its study with great diligence.
In 1836, Mr. Lincoln was re-elected to the legislature, and, in the autumn
of the same year, was admitted to the bar. We do not know the exact
date of his admission, but he could not have been very long unemployed, for
the writer has in his possession the original autograph praecipe, issued by
Mr. Lincoln for the writ in his first case. It is sufficiently curious and in-
teresting to find a place here, and is as follows :

October 8th, 1836. A.Lincoln.
It was at the next session of the Legislature, that Abraham Lincoln and
Stephen A. Douglas met for the first time, and little then did these two men
think of the important relations they were to hold in after life towards each
other. The most prominent act of the session was that of removing the
capital of the state from Vandalia to Springfield, and so active a part did
Mr. Lincoln take in effecting this measure, that he was solicited to remove
his residence to the new capital, which he accordingly did in the spring of
1837, and became a partner in the practice of the law, with his former ad-
viser, Major Stuart. This partnership, under the name of "Stuart & Lincoln,"
lasted about two years. Mr. Lincoln then formed a business connection
with Hon. S. T. Logan, the firm being " Logan k Lincoln," which continued
until 1843 The next year he formed his third and last partnership, that of
" Lincoln & Herndon," which was only closed by the tragedy of April, '65.
Upon the breaking up of Mr. Lincoln's second partnership, caused mainly
by both members of the firm having similar political aspirations, he accosted
his future partner and best friend, then quite a young and rather obscure
practitioner, with, " Billy, let us go into business together !" which proposi-
tion Mr. Herndon thankfully accepted. Mr. Lincoln arranged the terms of
partnership, and during the twenty-one years they were partners together,
they never kept a separate account, but held each others money as they did
14 INTRODUCTION.
their own, and never suspected nor experienced a wrong, and never Lad a
misunderstanding nor a grievance. When Mr. Lincoln was about to leave
for Washington, lie went to Ins friend and partner, and rather mournfully
addressing him, as he was wont, with the familiar " Billy," said, " yon and
I have been together all these years, and have never 'passed a word,' will you
let my name stay on the old sign till I come back from Washington V" The
answer need not be repeated, sufficit to say that it did honor to the heart
that fathered it, and to the day of the assassination, all the business of that
office was carried on in the name of " Lincoln & Herndon ;" and his name
was allowed to stay on the old sign till he came back from Washington,
but, alas, how differently was that return, to the way he expected, when he
uttered those feeling words. As a lawyer", Mr. Lincoln had a good local
reputation among his associates, but the jurisprudence of the West in his
day, has entitled few men to enduring honor and distinction. Perhaps the
most prominent case in which he was engaged, was McCormick B8. Manny,
when he represented the deftncfant, in one of the numerous cases involving
the question of the infringement of the patent of McCormick's celebrated
reaper. It is worthy of note, that in this case he was opposed by Messrs.
Seward and Stanton, two of his future counsellors and cabinet officers. This
reference to a patent cause, a class of cases in which Mr. Lincoln was not
infrequently engaged, occasions a good opportunity to refer to a mechanical
invention of his own, which was patented and now finds rather a conspicu-
ous place among the models in the Patent Office, at Washington. It was
for the purpose of enabling steam boats to float over the shoals and snags of
the western rivers, and consists simply of a sort of bellows-like apparatus,
which being pumped full of air, would give the vessel additional buoyancy
when it was required. The idea was quaint but not practical, and like so
many other similar attempted appliances of mechanical theories to practical
use, "only lended its aid in cumbering up the official department, where all
such inventions register their birth, and not a few find burial also.
In 1838, Mr. Lincoln was re-elected to the legislature of his state, and
again in 1840, for the last time. In 1842, having arrived at his thirty-third
year, he was married on November 4th, to Miss Mary Todd, a daughter of
Hon. Robert S. Todd, of Kentucky. The issue of this union was four sons :
Robert Todd, who was graduated at Harvard University, in 1864, and sub-
sequently was attached to the staff of General Grant, and is now prac-
ticing law in Chicago ; Edward, who died in infancy ; William, who died in
Washing-ton during Mr. Lincoln's administration, and Thomas, familiarly
known as Tad. his father having conferred this sobriquet upon him while
an infant in arms, by playfully calling him Tadpole. He is now with his
mother residing abroad.
It was a year or two before his marriage that Mr. Lincoln voluntarily
placed himself in the position to receive a challenge to fight a duel, from
James Shields, afterwards a senator in congress, and more recently a general
in the late war. The story of the occurrence is worthy of being related, as
showing the chivalric spirit of the young man. A sharp sarcastic poem
appeared in the Sangamon Journal, edited at the time by a man named
Simeon Francis, which was obviously addressed to Shields, although his
name of course did not appear. He went to the editor and demanded the
name of the author, otherwise he would hold him personally responsible.
The editor asked for a day to consider whether he would reveal the con-
tributor's name, which being granted, he immediately applied to Mr. Lincoln
for aid and counsel in the matter, the lines having been handed to him in
the hand-writing of Miss Todd, who was then supposed to hold a relation
to Mr. Lincoln, which after events proved might have had more foundation
than at the time appeared. The fact was that she had only copied them
from the manuscript of the author, a young lady friend. Mr. Lincoln at
once told Francis to say to Shields, that he might hold him responsible for
the poem. The result was a challenge from the hot blooded young Irishman
INTRODUCTION. 15
to meet Mm and cleanse the insult with " honor's sole purifier-'' The chal-
lenge was promptly accepted, and the choice of weapons being Mr. Lincoln's,
he selected broadswords, for the reason as he afterwards gave, that his arms
being long, he believed that without hurting Shields, he could protect him-
self. This, however, happily was unnecessary, the interference of friends
easily effecting an arrangement of the matter and a reconciliation between
the parties, although not until after they had reached the spot selected for
the combat, a place called Bloody island, lying in the Mississippi river,
between Illinois and Missouri.
In 1844, occurred the great presidential campaign between Polk and Clay,
and it was as a candidate for presidential elector, that Mr. Lincoln first be-
came generally known to the people of his state, outside of his own imme-
diate home and circle, and the subsequent defeat of Mr. Clay, was to him a
great and sad disappointment. A few years later, Mr. Lincoln had the
opportunity of meeting his great political idol and receiving an invitation,
to visit him at his home at Ashland, which ^-as greedily accepted ; but the
result of the interview was most unsatisfactory and showed to the worshiper
that his. " idol was but of clay."
In 1846, Mr. Lincoln had his wishes gratified by receiving the nomination
for congress, from the Sangamon district. To this position he had aspired
at the last election two years before ; but was chosen a delegate to the nomi-
nating convention with instructions to vote for the late Edward D. Baker ;
in regard to which he said, in a letter to a friend in Kentucky, " in trying
tn get the nomination for Baker, I shall be ' fixed' a good deal like the fel-
low who is made groomsman to the man who has ' cut him out' and is
marrying his own gal." The election proved successful, and Mr. Lincoln took
his seat in the thirtieth congress, December 6th, 1847, the only Whig mem-
ber from Illinois. This was perhaps the ablest, and stormiest congress that
ever'assembled in our country. Debate ran high between whigs and demo-
crats, on tariffs, rivers and harbor improvements, the rights of petition, the
abolition of slavery in the district of Columbia, and last, but far from least,
the Mexican war. Mr. Lincoln all through the session, with one exception,
voted consistently and religiously with his party, for he was ahvays in the
broadest sense a loyal party man. He was opposed to the Mexican war
from principle, and on the 22d of December, 1847, introduced a preamble and
set of resolutions of inquiry, criticising the messages of the president, and
throwing the responsibility for the first aggressions upon the administration,
for sending a hostile force across the boundary line in opposition to the ad-
vice of General Taylor, who said : " That in his opinion, no such movement
was necessary to the defence or protection of Texas." These resolutions
laid over under the rule of the house and were not called up again by Mr.
Lincoln, but they formed the basis of his first elaborate speech in congress,
which was delivered on the 12th of January of the following year. On the
first of June, 1848, the National whig convention met at Philadelphia, to
nominate a candidate for the presidency, and Mr. Lincoln was among its
delegates and gave his voice and vote for General Taylor; returning to
congress, which was still sitting, he made a speech in support of his candi-
date, in the course of which he made the remarks regarding General Cass's
military career repeated in our reference to the Black Hawk war. Upon the
adjournment of congress, which was not until the middle of August, he made
a short tour into New England, and spoke several times in favor of the elec-
tion of General Taylor. It is to meeting him in the streets of Worcester, at
this time, that Governor Bullock so felicitously refers in his able eulogy
before the citizens of that town. It was at the second session of this con-
gress that the Gott resolutions were brought forward, for the abolition of
slavery in the district of Columbia, and Mr. Lincoln recorded his vote against
the measure, together with such men as Pendleton, Stephens and Toombs.
He subsequently himself ottered a substitute for these resolutions, providing
for the gradual emancipation of the slaves in the district, by the purchase of
16 INTRODUCTION.
those then slaves by the government of the United States, for their full value,
and the freedom of all subsequently born. No definite action was taken
upon this substitute, and it remained among the unfinished business of the
session. His action in regard to this matter shows plainly that he regarded
slaves as property under the constitution. Slavery was to him, as it was to
thousands of his fellow citizens, legally right and morally wrong, and it was
on this strong foundation, that its overthrow was so steadily contested ;
and it was not until the measure was forced upon him by the necessities of
the country, that he overrode those rights guarantied by the constitution and
extinguished slavery by one fell blow.
Mr. Lincoln's congressional career ended March 4th, 1849, and he was
succeeded by his former opponent, the late eloquent and gifted Edward D.
Baker, who so gallantly fell at the Ball's Bluff massacre. When General
Taylor entered office, Mr. Lincoln was a candidate for the appointment of
commissioner of the general land office, but he was unsuccessful ; he was,
however, tendered the position^ secretary, and then of governor of Ore-
gon, both of which he declined. On returning home, Mr. Lincoln entered
vigorously upon the arduous duties of his profession, and devoted himself to
them during a number of years following, but it is not to be supposed that
the great political convulsions of 1850-54 found him indifferent to the re-
sult. This period of his career has been so fully brought before the public
during the last decade of years, that the writer does not propose to touch
upon it, more than to mention that his first attempt at what might be
termed a semi-literary undertaking, was produced at this time, when he
was invited to eulogize his old hero, Henry Clay, who had deceased in the
month of June, 1852. It was considered we believe a failure, his foi-te not
lying in that direction. Passing over the complimentary vote given to Mr.
Lincoln for the nomination of vice-president at the Philadelphia Convention
of June, 1856, which nomimated Fremont and Dayton for its candidates in
the presidential campaign, which elected Mr. Buchanan, we reach his great
senatorial contest of ten years later, with the " little giant," Stephen A.
Douglas, which really first brought Mr. Lincoln prominently before the
country, and then, it was principally owing to his connection with his great
opponent that his name became so universally known. The two candidates
canvassed the state together, speaking at the same place on the same day.
It was conducted with marked ability on both sides, and awakened consider-
able interest. Mr. Lincoln showed himself in debate, not far behind the
recognized leader of the democratic party in congress, and the avowed
aspirant for the presidential chair; but there being a democratic majority
in the legislature, Mr. Lincoln was of course defeated. On being asked by
a friend how he felt after his defeat he said, " Very much like the stripling
who had bruised his toe, " too bad to laugh and too big to cry." Mr. Doug-
las, in his first speech at the opening of this remarkable campaign, makes
this allusion to his antagonist " I take great pleasure in saying that I have
known personally and intimately for about a quarter of a century the worthy
gentleman who has been nominated for my place, and I will say that I regard
him as a kind, amiable and intelligent gentleman, a good citizen, and an
honorable opponent, and whatever issue I may have with him will be of
principle and not of personalities." In the winter of 1858, Mr. .Lincoln
wrote in the form of a lecture a comprehensive history of inventions, begin-
ning with the early ages, and ending with the latest productions of inven-
tive art. This lecture was delivered once or twice, but like his only other
attempt of a similar character, his eulogy on Clay, was most unsatisfactory.
It was also in this year that Mr. Charles Laumau was preparing for publi-
cation his " Dictionary of Congress " and in reply to an application made to
Mr. Lincoln for a sketch of his life, received the following concise memo-
randum :
Born, February 12, 1809, in Hardin County, Kentucky. Education defec-
tive. Profession, a lawyer. Have been a captain of volunteers in the Black
INTRODUCTION. 17
Hawk war. Postmaster at a very small office. Four times a member of
the Illinois Legislature ; and was a member of the lower house of Congress.
Yours,
A. Lincoln.
Towards the close of the next year, Mr. Lincoln had the opportunity
offered him of speaking face to face to an eastern audience, by an invita-
tion being extended to him to lecture in Brooklyn, at Plymouth church.
He accepted the invitation conditioned on being allowed to make a political
speech, and appointed the following STthof February for its delivery. The
speech, which it was finally concluded should be delivered at the Cooper
Institute, New York, under the auspices of the Young Men's Republican
Union, was by many regarded as the best and most elaborate he ever made.
It was very widely circulated and read, and prepared the minds of the
people for Ms nomination for the presidency. He spent several days in New
York after its delivery, and then made his.second visit to New England,
speaking in several places on the political questions of the day. The agita-
tions in the political world were rapidly increasing and insinuating themselves
into the minds of the people more and more, as it became manifest to them
that the life and existence of the nation depended upon their action on the new
topics now daily arising. Then fast followed the conventions of Baltimore,
Richmond and Chicago, each with its own pet party candidate for the presi-
dential chair, and as the name of Abraham Lincoln was sent forth as one of
the nominees, the inquiring voice of the multitude cried out, " and who is
Abraham ;LiucoluY" At this day, that such could have been the case,
seems almost impossible, but nevertheless it is surely true ; and now no
name of the last half century is so widely known and respected. Mr. Lin-
coln was at Springfield in the office of the State Journal, when he received
a telegraphic dispatch informing him of his nomination. He looked at it
in silence while those around him were rending the air with their shouts,
and theu putting it into his pocket quietly said : " There is a little woman
down at our house would like to hear this, I'll go down and tell her."
On the 6th of November the election took place throughout the whole
country, and what the result was is too well known to need a repetition
here. And now began a new life for him ; from this moment to the hour of
his death, he knew not what quiet or leisure was ; in accepting the presi-
dency he resigned his privacy. He was no longer his own master, but the
very servant of those over whom he was a chosen master. On the eleventh
of the following February, Mr. Lincoln bade a long farewell to his home in
Springfield, and set out on his journey for the national capital. From the
platform of the car, just as he was starting, he addressed his friends and
neighbors these beautiful and touching words :
" My friends : No one not in my position can realize the sadness I feel at
this parting. To this people I owe all that I am. Here I have lived more
than a quaiter of a century. Here my children were born and here one of
them lies buried. I know not how soon 1 shall see you again. I go to
assume a task more difficult than that which has devolved upon any other
man since the days of Washington. He never would have succeeded except
for the aid of Divine Providence, upon which he at all times relied. I feel
that I cannot succeed without the same divine blessing which sustained
him ; and on the same Almighty B;;ing I place my reliance for support.
And I hope you, my friends, will all pray that I may receive that Divine
assistance, without which I cannot succeed, and with which success is cer-
tain. Again I bid you all an affectionate farewell."
The deep religious feeling which pervades this speech, marked him to the
close of his life. In nearly all his public messages, proclamations and
papers of every kind, he recognized our dependence upon God as individuals
and as a nation, not in the formal phrases of his predecessors and successors,
but in heartfelt words, showing the Christian spirit to be the all pervading
18 INTRODUCTION.
mainspring of his life. He had faitli in the higher law ; in the higher law-
giver.
From Springfield Mr. Lincoln went to Indianapolis, and from a brief
speech delivered here, the outside world obtained the first glimpse of his
intended future policy. Visiting Cincinnati, Columbus, Pittsburgh, Cleve-
land, Buffalo, Albany, New York, and Trenton, he arrived in Philadel-
phia on the eve of Washington's birth-day 1801. Here it was that the plot
to assassinate him during his passage through Baltimore was fully unfolded
to him. Mr. Lincoln having listened to the detailed statement of Mr. Allan
Pinkerton, chief of the National Police Agency, who with his assistants had
been mainly instrumental in discovering the conspiracy, said, that he had
promised to raise the American Flag over Independence Hall the following
morning, and also had accepted an invitation to a reception by the Pennsyl-
vania legislature in the afternoon of the same day — " Both of these engage-
ments I will keep if it costs me my life. If, however, after I have con-
cluded these engagements, you can take me in safety to Washington, I will
place myself at your disposal, and authorize you to make such arrangements
as you may deem proper for that purpose." The next morning Mr. Lincoln
was formally received in Independence Hall, and afterwards performed the
ceremony according to his promise of raising the flag over the " birth place
of our liberties." In the afternoon of the same day he arrived in Harris-
burgh, and attended the reception given him by the legislature of the state.
Here he remained till nearly sis o'clock in the evening, when accompanied
by Colonel Ward H. Lamon he was quietly driven to the depot of the Penn-
sylvania Kail Road Company, and took a special train which was in waiting,
for Philadelphia, wdiere he arrived in time to take the regular eleven o'clock
through night train for Washington, reaching his destination safely at the
usual lwur, on the morning of Saturday the 33d. The city of Washington
was thrown into a flutter of excitement by this unexpected arrival. Mr.
Lincoln's opponents ridiculed his fears, and his suppporters felt equally
ashamed that their chosen chief should have consented to sneak into the
capital "like a thief in the night." But the rapidly developing events soon
showed that the proper course had been pursued. Mr. Lincoln, long after-
wards in speaking of the occasion, said to the Hon. Isaac X. Arnold, of Illi-
nois : " I did not then, nor do I now, believe I should haw been assassinated,
had I gone through Baltimore as first contemplated, but I thought it wise
to run no risk, when no risk was necessary." For a full, graphic and au-
thentic statement of the facts pertaining to this event, the author would
refer to the" History and evidence of the passage of Abraham Lincoln from
Harrisburgh, Pa., to Washington, D. C, on the 22d and '23d of February,
1861," written by the chief agent in its detention, and published at Chicago
early in the year 1868.
The days preceding the inauguration passed in rapid succession, until the
morning of the fourth of March broke beautifully clear, and found the vene-
rable generalissimo of the army of the United States prepared for any
emergency. All the necessary arrangements forthe ceremony having been
completed, at a few minutes past one. President Buchanan entered the Sen-
ate chamber with the president elect. Hon. E. D. Baker then a senator
from Oregon, introduced his old friend to the assembly, but there was no
very hearty welcome given to Mr. Lincoln as he stepped forward to read his
inaugural address. On its conclusion the oath of office was administered by
the chief justice of the United States, Hon. Roger-Brooke Taney. His ad-
dress was marked by a moderate and conciliatory tone, containing no reproach
to the south, no menace and no threat. On the other hand, it leaned
towards them ; it assured them of certain protection of all their old rights
under the constitution, and closed with these words of warning and entreaty :
" In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow countrymen, and not mine, is the
momentous issue of civil war. The1 government will not assail you, you
can have no conflict without being yourselves the aggressors. You have no
INTRODUCTION. 19
oath registered in heaven to destroy the government, while I have the
most solemn one " to preserve, protect and defend it." " I am loth to close.
We are not enemies but friends. We must not be enemies. Though pas-
sion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mys-
tic cords of memory, stretching from every battle field and patriot grave to
every living heart and hearth-stone all over this broad land, will yet swell
the chorus of the union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the
better angels of our nature."
The address delivered, and the oath administered, the august ceremonies of
the occasion were concluded, and passing back through the senate chamber,
the sixteenth president of the United States was escorted to his future resi-
dence, the White House. His first official act was the formation of his cabi-
net, and of the seven chosen to be his counsellors, four had been rival candi-
dates with lrim for the presidental nomination. On the loth of April, 1861,
the third day after the bombardment of Fort Sumter was commenced.
President Lincoln issued his proclamation and call for seventy-five thousand
men, to " suppress treasonable combinations and cause the laws to be duly
executed." This proclamation and the imminent danger of the govern-
ment united the north. The fall of Sumter, was the resurrection of patriot-
ism. Four days later a temperate proclamation of blockade was made, and
the nation stood calmly on the defensive while the south was making the
most strenuous efforts for the aggressive. Seeing this the president con-
vened Congress on the fourth of July, 1861, and asked for four hundred
thousand men and four hundred million dollars. Congress acted with the
utmost promptness and liberality, voting five hundred thousand men, and
five hundred million dollars, in aid of the war. Thus not only sustaining
the president, but giving him one hundred thousand more men, and one
hundred million dollars more money than he called for.
It is not the intention of the writer, to follow Mr. Lincoln's career through
the various acts and measures which arose out of the exigencies of the
times, in which was passed the closing years of his life ; to do so properly
would require a volume double the size of the present, and not only this,
but our passions and our prej udices have not had sufficient time to regard
tin- events of those days with that calmness and impartiality needed for the
historian's appreciative work. We will, therefore, note but a few leading
acts of his official life, and first among them for important results is the pro-
clamation of emancipation of the first of January, 1S(>J, aud those prelimi-
nary steps which brought it forth. On the sixth of .March. 1SI','2. President
Lincoln sent a special message to congress recommending a joint resolution
to compensate all states for their abolition of slavery, as a war measure and a
measure of public safety. The resolution to compensate was passed in both
houses and signed by the president : and in his correspondence with both
Generals Fremont and Hunter, who had each declared martial law and the
abolition of slavery within their districts, hi' gives as the reason for the revoca-
tion of the emancipation part of their military proclamations, the fact that
they had transcended the laws < if o ingress which he as executive was to exe-
cute and not to obstruct. Next to the fatal mistake of commencing war at all,
the refusal of the slave states to accept of this proposition was their awful
blunder. On the twenty-second of September following, Mr. Lincoln issued
the conditional proclamation of emancipation, freeing the slaves of those
states and those sections of states which should be in rebellion on the 1st
of January, 1863, thus leaving it to the slave states to say, whether they
would save their pet institutions by returningto their allegiance or not. Two
days later the proclamation suspending the writ of luihais rorpii.s was
issued. This measure created more universal and well founded dissatisfac-
tion than any other of the administration. It attacked that dearest right
of man, the security of personal liberty. No one knew but that it might
be his necessity next to invoke its aid, but invoke it he would in vain.
Some of the leading jurists of the day took up their pens in defence, of the
20 INTRODUCTION.
writ against the action of the executive, while one alone, the Nestor1 of our
bar, cast his argument in the scale, for its support. The works arising out
of this subject number many volumes, and are valuable as contributions to
the science of Constitutional Law.
Time rolled on, the new year fast approached, yet the insurgent states
gave no sign of their intention to accept the conditions held out to them in
the proclamation of the twenty-second of September. Nay, more, they in-
dignantly rejected it. The first of January arrived, and with it came the
supplemental final words which sealed the fate of human slavery on this
continent forever. The original draft of the emancipation proclamation
was purchased by Thomas B. Bryan, Esq., of Chicago, at the north-western
fair for the Sanitary Commission held at Chicago in the fall of 18G3, and
the pen with which it was signed now belongs to the family of the late
George Livermore of Cambridge, Mass., it having been presented to Mr.
Livermore by President Lincoln soon after the important document was
completed, and transmitted to that gentleman through the Hon. Charles
Sumner, who has been justly styled " the best informed man on all subjects
in this country." At the time of the Philadelphia Sanitary Fair in June,
1864, twenty copies of this proclamation were beautifully printed on parch-
ment paper, and signed at the request of two gentleman prominently con-
nected with the movement, by the President and Mr. Seward, which signa-
tures were afterwards attested as genuine by Mr. Lincoln's private secretary,
Colonel John G. Nicolay. One of these very interesting documents is uow
in the possession of the writer.
The year which was heralded in by the proclamation of emancipation
saw the defeat at Chancellorsville follow fast upon the still more disastrous
repulse at Fredericksburg. This was a sad beginning of the year's opera-
tions, and was succeeded a few months later by the invasion of Maryland
and Pennsylvania by General Lee and his entire army. This movement
began on the 3d of June, and was accomplished so quickly and apparently
so easily that the whole country was thrown into a whirl of excitement and
fearful apprehension. At this juncture, with the army of the Potomac hast-
ening to dispute the enemy's advance, its commander was relieved, and
General Meade called to that position. This seemed a most hazardous ex-
periment. An army defeated and broken, marching on to battle in death's
struggle with a powerful and exultant foe, to have its leader changed when
on the very verge of conflict, appeared to he a movement calculated more to
dishearten than strengthen it; but happily the result proved otherwise.
The second day after Meade assumed command, the battle of Gettysburg
began, and it raged with terrific energy for three days. At the close of the
third day Lee having lost nearly forty thousand men in killed, wounded
and prisoners, and running short of ammunition, showed that he was too
exhausted to resume the fight. The contest was decided, the victory won,
northern soil was freed once more from southern tread. While these glad
tidings were ringing on the loyal heart of the north, came the welcome
news from the far-off city of the west, that the stronghold of the Mississippi
had surrendered. Thus the 4th of July. 18(!:j, was celebrated with greater
exultation than would have been merely the eighty-seventh anniversary
of our independence. The state of Pennsylvania having purchased its great
battle-ground, and consecrated it as a National Cemetery for the gallant
men who fell in its defence, on the 19th of November following, the public
dedication took place with solemn and impressive ceremonies. The formal
oration was delivered by the nation's gifted son Edward Everett, and Mr.
Lincoln followed in a brief but appropriate address. The battle of Gettys-
burg was in its result one of the most decisive of the war, and it. with the
victory at Vicksburg, gave great encouragement to Tin- depressed spirits
of the people.

INTRODUCTION. 21
In December, 1863, Mr. Lincoln issued Ms proclamation of amnesty to all
those engaged in the rebellion, except such as were in the civil or military
service of the confederate government, or had left the civil or military ser-
vice of the United States to aid that government. To this proclamation he
issued a supplementary one on the 24th of the following March, explaining
its full intents, and defining more particularly those cases which might
claim its benefit. The time now came when nominations were to be made
for the occupant of the presidential chair during the four succeeding years,
and on the 8th of June, 1864, the republican convention met in Baltimore,
and unanimously chose Mr. Lincoln for re-election. Two months later the
Democratic convention assembled in Chicago, and nominated Major General
George B. McClellan, for his opponent. Andrew Johnson and George H.
Pendleton received respectively the republican and democratic nominations
for the vice-presidency. The election of the following November gave Mr.
Lincoln an overwhelming majority, and on the 4th of March, 1865, he was
re-inaugurated into the presidential office for a second term. His address
was very brief but touching ; and the words, " with malice towards none,
with charity for all," with which it closed, will fall hereafter into that sacred
number of phrases, not scripture, but which men often cite unwittingly, as
though they were.
The affairs of the rebellion were hurrying to a crisis. Sherman, the
ablest and most accomplished soldier of the war, had completed his great
inarch so far as to bring its bearing upon the confederate capital, while
Grant was gradually narrowing the circle which his lines formed around
the same stronghold. On the 3d of April, Lee was forced to evacuate Rich-
mond, and on the morning of the 14th, the federal troops took possession of
the burning city, and proceeded to extinguish the flames. This virtually
ended the war. President Lincoln, who had been at City Point for several
days, visited the city immediately after its capture, in company with his
youngest son, and Admiral Porter. He entered it, not as the conquering hero
in triumphal car, but as the private citizen with his little boy by the hand.
On the 9th he returned to Washington, and there received the news that
Grant, who had been pursuing Lee, had forced him to surrender. The other
confederate generals rapidly followed the example of their chief, and on the
26th of May, there was left no organized rebel force anywhere within the ter-
ritory of the United States. The five days succeeding Mr. Lincoln's return
from City Point were indeed memorable ones. The surrender of the southern
forces filled the people with inexpressible joy. Houses were illuminated,
bells rung, and salutes fired, and the chief magistrate seemed full of hope
and happiness. In the midst of the rejoicings at the capital, it was an-
nounced that the president and General Grant would visit Ford's theatre
on the evening of the 14th. Grant declined attending, but the president,
never willing to disappoint the people, accepted the invitation, and with
Mrs. Lincoln and one or two friends entered the president's box after the
performance had begun. He was greeted with great enthusiasm. As the
play progressed, a pistol shot was heard and supposed at the instant to be
a part of the performance, until a man with a bloody dagger in his hand
leaped to the stage from the box where was the presidential party, ex-
claiming, "Sic semper tyrannis — The South is avenged," and then escaped
behind the scenes. The president had been shot and the assassin had
escaped. The ball entered the brain, creating a mortal wound, from which
Abraham Lincoln, sixteenth president of the United States, expired on the
morning of the 15th of April, 1865, at about the hour of seven.
The Rev. Dr. Gurley, who was pastor of the Presbyterian Church in
Washington, which Mr. Lincoln usually attended, has given the following
beautiful account of the scene at the Presidents' death bed : "' When sum-
moned on that sad night to the death bed of President Lincoln, I entered
the room fifteen or twenty minutes before his departure. All present were
gathered anxiously around him, waiting to catch his last breath. The
22 1XTH0DUCT10N.
physician with one hand upon the pulse of the dying man, and the other
hand laid upon his heart, was intently watching for the moment when life
should cease. He lingered longer than we had expected. At last the
physician said : ' He is gone ; he is dead.' Then I solemnly believe that for
four or five minutes, there was not the slightest noise or movement in that
awful presence We all stood transfixed in our positions, speechless, breath-
less, around the dead body of that great and good man. At length tin-
secretary of war, who was standing at my left, broke silence, and said :
' Doctor, will you say anything'?' I replied, ' 1 will speak to God,' said he
'do it just now.' And there, by the side of our fallen chief. God put it into
my heart to utter this petition, that from that hour, we and the whole na-
ticm might become more than ever united in our devotion to the cause of
our beloved, imperiled country. When I ceased, there arose from the lips of
the entire company, a fervid and spontaneous ' Amen.' "
And has not the whole heart of the loyal nation responded " Amen I" Was
not that prayer thus offered, responded to in a most remarkable maimer'.'
When in our history have the people of this land been found more closely
bound together in purpose and heart, than when the telegraphic wires bore all
over the country, the sad tidings that President Lincoln was dead ? Yes, his
death raised a truce to faction and called forth a unanimity of sentiment
that astonished and delighted all. Millions, lately in some degree opposed,
were now united in feeling, and vied with each other in honoring his
memory. The day following Ids decease, was that most joyful of all re-
ligious festivals, Easter Sunday ; and as each minister ascended his pulpit,
he laid aside his carefully prepared sermon for the day, and from the fullness
of his heart, gave vent to words of sorrow and consolation for the awful
calamity which had befallen the nation and created such a universal
feeling of sadness and horror in the breasts of the whole community. But
one short week before, the Sunday which opened upon Passion-week, that
week of darkness and sorrow which contains the day when our Saviour
was crucified and became the one offering for the sins of the world, each
congregation had been gathered together to render thanks for the final
triumphs vouchsafed our arms, and on that occasion one of the most gifted
Episcopal divines selected for his text the words of St. John, " Tt is expe-
dient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole
nation perish not ;" little thinking that words only coincident with the
hallowed day, would so soon have such a literal fulfillment.
At noon, on Wednesday of Easter week, was the time appointed for the
funeral solemnities of the murdered president at the national capital, and
in every parish of the land, simultaneously were held memorial commemo-
rative services. A whole ] pie were in tears ; a whole nation bowed down
in mourning ; a whole country draped in woe. The funeral ceremonies were
very solemn and impressive, and were attended by all holding official posi-
tions at the time, in Washington. After the services at the White House,
the body was taken to the Capitol, and there exposed to public view during
the next day. On the morning of the 31st, the funeral cortege moved for
his old home, where was to l>e the final resting place of the late president,
taking nearly the same route which he had taken when he came from that
home to assume the presidency, four years Victor.-. Baltimore. Harris! mrg.
Philadelphia. New York, Albany, Buffalo, Cleveland, Columbus. Indian-
apolis and Chicago, were honored with being the temporary custodians of
his remains, until at last, on the morning of the third day of May, the
funeral procession reached Springfield. Here, for twenty-four hours his old
friends and neighbors pressed into the State House, where his body was. to
gain a last glimpse of that homely but familiar face. At noon of the next
day, his followers took up their last march, and conducted the remains to
Oak Badge Cemetery, a beautiful spot about two miles from the city, where
with proper and appropriate ceremonies, all that was mortal of Abraham
Lincoln was consigned to the earth that gave him.
INTROD UCTION. 23
The vice-president, Mr. Johnson, having succeeded immediately on the
death of the president to the vacant office, on the 25th of April issued his
proclamation recommending Thursday May 25th, " as a day for special hu-
miliation and prayer in consequence of the assassination oi' Abraham Lin-
coln, late President of the United States," but that day being Ascension-day
hi' issued a second proclamation postponing the special services until Thurs-
day, June 1st, when some of the finest productions of the pulpit were called
forth. Each church vied with its neighbor in honoring the martyr presi-
dent, and many, very many, sought to perpetuate its action by placing in
permanent form the eulogy, sermon or address delivered by its respective
minister. It is in no slight degree owing to this laudable ambition that
the writer is indebted for the materials for his present work.
Mr. Lincoln was certainly a most remarkable man. He was undoubtedly
well fitted for the times in which he lived, and the emergency that con-
fronted him. He began with a very moderate degree of public confidence
and sympathy. A large proportion of the community had at the time of
his first election, and for a considerable period afterward.-., a painful sense of
distrust, as to his qualifications for the position to which he had been called.
This distrust was slow to yield. Good things were done, but they were all
attributed, on account of this preconceived opinion of his ability, to the ex-
cellence of his advisers, while the evils and the mistakes were all laid to
him. His physical organization must not be overlooked as one of the
sources of his success. The great practical men of the world have been,
not necessarily of large, bat of strong bodily frames. To the heathen phi-
losopher a sound mind in a sound body seemed the greatest good, "mens
sana in corpore sana." The discipline of his early life prepared his frame
for the laborious duties which were to devolve upon him. It is true that
this discipline did not develop his form into a beautiful and graceful one.
His warmest friends could not claim that for him, but they could declare
that " his large eyes in their softness and beauty expressed nothing but be-
nevolence and gentleness,'' and that a pleasant smile frequently brought
out more vividly the earnest cast of his features, which were serious even
to sadness. He has been called by one of his best friends " a wiry, awkward
giant." He was six feet four inches high ; his arms were long almost dis-
proportionably so ; his mouth and nose were both exceedingly large; his
features were coarse, and his large hands exhibited the traces of toil. He
was not specially attentive to dress, though by no means slovenly. The
formal politeness cf fashionable life he had not ; though the gentleness of
the unspoiled child of nature he had. He said once that he had never
studied the art of paying c impliments to women, yet they never received a
grander one than he paid when he declared " if all that has been said by
orators and poets since the creation of the world in praise of women were
applied to American women, it would not do them justice for their con-
duct during the war." It has been stated that he had noue of the grossness
of life. He was not a licentious man. He was not addicted to the use of
profane language. He did not gamble. He was temperate and he did not
use tobacco in any form. Only those who have known the fearful extent
to which these habits prevail among our public men, can appreciate the
honor which the absence of them confers upon the late ('resident. His hon-
esty passed into a proverb, and his integrity was beyond reproach. It
was not called in question, even in the bight of political excitement
and vituperation. His qualities of heart were such as commended him
to all men. He was naturally disposed to think well of his race. His
prepossessions were generally in favor of a man. He would rather
love than hate him; in fact he seemed as if he could not hate him if
he would. The entire absence of vindictiveness, either personal or political,
was one of the ripe fruits of his native tenderness. Was he ever heard to
have said a hard thing of his opponents, or known to have uttered a single
word showing personal hate or even personal feeling? Between him and
24 INTRODUCTION.
his predecessors no parallel can be drawn, for no other president ever held
the reins of power through four years of virulent rebellion. It is therefore
impossible to say bow much better or bow much worse others would have
done.
Not graceful nor refined, not always using the Etaglisb language correctly,
he proved to be a meet and proper man for tbe times. He bad the greatness
of goodness ; not a powerful nor a brilliant intellect, but plain practical good
sense ; a sincere purpose to do rigbt ; an eminent catholic spirit that was
ready to listen to all sides, and a firm unshaken belief in the expediency of
justice. When others with higher and more profound faculties might have
failed, he succeeded, guided by bis matchless sagacity and prudence, and
common sense and native shrewdness. His thoughts were his own; they
were fresh and original, and were clothed with a quaintness, a directness, a
simplicity of style, peculiar to himself. He had a vein of humor which
marked him from all other men in bis position, and lost him/perhaps, the
reputation of official dignity ; and yet this very humor, which in most im-
portant emergencies could not refrain from making the witty repartee or
telling the pointed anecdote, undoubtedly helped him to endure those fatigues
and cares under which be would otherwise have sunken. This story of his
■life, which the writer has endeavored to tell with truthful simplicity and
without any of those adornments usually bestowed so bountifully upon
similar works, cannot be more appropriately closed than with the words of
Daniel Webster, on the death of President Taylor, which indeed seem almost
prophetic of Mr. Lincoln : " He has left on the minds of the country a strong
impression : first of his absolute honesty and integrity of character ; next
of his sound, practical good sense ; and lastly of the mildness, kindness and
friendliness of his temper towards bis countrymen."

PREFACE.
The making of this compilation has been the occupation of
spare hours throughout the past eight years, having been under-
taken in aid of the writer's efforts to collect the class of publi-
cations described. Its value to others similarly engaged, to libra-
rians and to students of the civil war period, seems to warrant put-
ting it in type. So the matter has been carefully revised and a
small edition issued.
The aim has been to present, not a catalogue of printed
Lincolniana, nor an index to all that has been published about
Mr. Lincoln, but a bibliography, as complete as may be, of the
matter issued in book and pamphlet form which relates dis-
tinctively to the man and his history. Readers who m^y observe
omissions or other faults in the prosecution of this design will con-
fer a favor by calling attention to them.
In nearly every instance the title page has been transcribed
entire, and such further information given concerning each publi-
cation as will render its identification easy and certain. The
titles are arranged in alphabetical order of author's names, when
known; when not known, in accordance with approved bibli-
ographical usage. Occasional notes and cross-references, it is
hoped, will add something of interest and value.
The compiler acknowledges his indebtedness to the " Memor-
ial Lincoln Bibliography," published by Mr. Andrew Boyd thirty
years ago, and long out of print. To that work, indeed, and es-
pecially to the industry and skill of Prof. Charles H. Hart as
therein exhibited, this list is due. A few pamphlets have been
added which were extant in 1870, and some trifling errors corrected,
but in the main this is only a re-posting of the account to the end
of the century.
The hope of money reward, it is perhaps unnecessary to say,
has not been entertained. As a son of Illinois and a boy soldier
of the Union, the writer is rejoiced to contribute in this humble
way to the continued fame of his great compatriot and com-
mander, whose matchless qualities of heart and brain are cele-
brated in a special literature, more copious and more brilliant
than the life [of any other American has evoked. If further
compensation for the labor were due, it rests in the hoped-for ap-
preciation of those who know how exacting — and fascinating —
such labor may be. D. F.

stands pointing to a Temple of Liberty, a sure promise of Freedom ;

SKETCH OF MONUMENTS, ETC.
The Freedman's Monument to Abraham Lincoln now being
executed by Miss Hosmer, and about to be erected in the grounds
of the Capitol at Washington, is described as follows :
The total height is sixty feet; the sides of the base are filled
with bas-reliefs, illustrating the life of the president : the first sym-
bolizes his birth and his various occupations as a builder of log
cabins, flat boatman and farmer; the second illustrates his career as
a lawyer, and his installation as president of the United States ; the
third contains four memorable events of the late war ; while the
fourth shows the closing scenes of his life, the assassination in the
theatre, the funeral procession, and his burial at Springfield. The
four tablets above these contain respectively the following inscrip-
tions : Abraham Lincoln, Martyr, President of the United States,
Preserver of the American Union, Emancipator of Four Millions
of men. The circular bas-reliefs higher up show thirty-six female
figures, symbolizing the union of the same number of states ; each
of these figures represents the peculiarity of that state whose shield
occupies the medallion beneath.
The four colossal statues placed at the outer angles, display the
progressive stages of liberation during Lincoln's administration.
LINCOLN BIBLIOGRAPHY. 173
The negro appears, first, exposed for sale; second, laboring in a
plantation; third, guiding and assisting the loyal troops ; and, fourth
serving as a soldier of the union.
In the pillared " temple " surmounting the whole, is a colossal
6tatue of Lincoln, holding in one hand the Proclamation of Eman-
cipation, and in the other the broken chain of Slavery. The four
female figures also of colossal size, represent Liberty bearing their
crowns to the freedman. On the architecture of the temple are in-
scribed the concluding words of the Proclamation of Emancipation :
And upon this, sincerely believed to be an act of justice, I invoke
the considerate judgment of mankind, and the gracious favor of
Almighty God."
The architectural portions will be constructed of granite ; the
figures and bas-reliefs will be cast in bronze. The cost is estimated
at £50,000.

on which is a colossal statue of Lincoln. On a plane below, at the
four cardinal points, are four pedestals, on which are groups repre-
senting the infantry, cavalry, artillery and marine arms of the service.
Encircling these pedestals are tablets on which are written the names
of all the states. These tablets are linked together. On the four
