 Item — Box: 1A, Folder: 2.2.3

Scope and Contents

"I have had a card from Mr. Whitney, in which hesays that he has submitted his revised version of the Bloomington speech [by Abraham Lincoln] to you; that you have made some suggestions which he wishes to adopt. ... I feel particularly anxious that the version we publish should be perfectly satisfactory to you, since you have been so good as to take so much interest in the matter, and since your letter will be the chief support of the speech."
