 Foreword 
 
 These memorials of Abraham Lincoln have bound up 
 within them the strivings by which he grew to the stature 
 of greatness. Through the years that have intervened since 
 his passing the memories which they hold have been aug- 
 mented by the thoughts and acts to which they have inspired 
 those who have reverently possessed them. 
 
 Henry M. Leland reached his twenty-first birthday in 
 1864. In that year he cast his first presidential vote for 
 Abraham Lincoln. The esteem which he thereby expressed 
 for the man and his principles grew with the years, and was 
 happily rewarded in 1916 when he was able to acquire the 
 relics and documents described in the following pages. 
 
 Always a vital force in his life, the Lincoln traditions 
 became a still more compelling influence to Mr. Leland from 
 that time forward. In the following year, a time of inter- 
 national crisis, he earnestly dedicated the Lincoln Motor 
 Company to the service of this nation for which the martyred 
 president gave "that last full measure of devotion." In this 
 same reverent spirit do we now offer these memorials to those 
 who revere the memory of Abraham Lincoln.

 "No^v others -may hare felt on reading this Proclamation, we do not know, 
 but for ourseh'cs we must confess, that for days together we were ashamed to 
 look- an American in the Face. If the object of the Proclamation was to humili- 
 ate us, it has certainly had that effect, though in a different ivay from what 
 li'as originally intended by it." etc.

 19. LINCOLN, ABRAHAM. AMBROTYPE OF ABRAHAM 
 LINCOLN. Oval Ij^ by 2 inches. In gold frame and chased 
 ebony case. 
 
 This ambrotype has for its background some of the most cherished memories of 
 the Lincoln family. The picture ivas taken February 27, 1860. On that day 
 Lincoln delivered at Cooper Union the address which is said to have made him 
 President of the United States. Mrs. Lincoln so loved this likeness that she 
 claimed it for her own and kept it as her personal possession for many years. 
 The President was so moved by the address of Dr. Gurley at the obsequies of 
 his little son, William Wallace Lincoln, that he then asked Mrs. Lincoln to 
 present the portrait, on her death, to Dr. Gurley's family. When the sale of 
 the Gurley collectio^n became known to Mrs. Emma B. Hodge of Chicago, she 
 purchased the ambrotype and it was acquired from her by Wilfred C. Leland 
 for his father's collection of Lincolniana. 
 
 Mr. Leland learned of this portrait through Rev. Newell Dwight Hillis, and 
 in speaking of it Dr. Hillis said; "There is no photograph in existance of Abra- 
 ham Lincoln that has this spirited mood. You hai'e seen him in the mood of 
 discussion; you have seen him in the mood of a stern resolve; but here you 
 find him in the mood wherein he has surrendered his will and life into the 
 hands of God. It is the most poetic single portrait of Lincoln that was ever 
 made."

 Leaf of Lincoln's Arithmetic 
 
 25. LINCOLN'S SUM BOOK written when a school boy. De- 
 fective leaf containing examples in long division worked out by 
 Lincoln, with autograph, "Abraham Lincoln's Book." Inlaid, 2 pp., 
 folio, silked. 
 
 On one side of the leaf are four lines, reading as follows: 
 
 "Abraham Lincoln is my name 
 
 And with my pen I wrote the same, 
 
 I wrote in both haste and st>eed 
 
 And left it here for fools to read' 
 
 The heading of the leaf is dated 1824. Lincoln was then fifteen years of age, 
 and the family zvas livitig in the backwoods. As is zuell known, he had I'ery 
 little schooling and did most of his studying at home and this leaf is from an 
 exercise book in tvhich he f'octiced his e.vamfiles. il'hile part of the leaf i.t 
 missing this still remains one of the most interesting Lincoln souvenirs in 
 existence. Few other such leares are extent, but this is unique in that it con- 
 tains the poem abore quoted. 
 
 26. LINCOLN'S SUM BOOK. Another defective leaf containing 
 examples in compound interest, worked out by Lincoln. Inlaid, 
 2pp., folio, silked. This leaf followed the foregoing item of long 
 division and shows the studious disposition of the young Lincoln. 
 These pages represent hard mental labor done at night after the 
 daily toil, in 1822 to 1824. A more personal or characteristic souv- 
 nir of Lincoln would be difficult to procure.

 T. Stuart. 
 
 Lincoln's partnership with John T. Stuart was in force but five months at the 
 time of tiiis document a<nd we find them on opposing sides in the case. It is 
 evident therefore that this was a friendly suit for the legal settlement of a 
 technical point. Another interesting feature about the document is the signature, 
 which was started in the usual way. "Stuart and Lincoln," but the "Stu" is 
 crossed out and the signature is i>jritten, simply "A. Lincoln for Compl'n't."

 who had engaged Lincoln to conduct some important suits in 
 which the Company was interested. 
 
 The Letter commences "This is the last day of Court here and being abottt to 
 leare I have drati'n on the Illinois Central Railroad Company, or rather on 
 you on their Account, for $100 which the McClean County Banks hare negoci- 
 ated for me. I hare directed them to hare the draft presented to you. Will 
 you please see that it shall be honored? The reason I have taken this Liberty 
 is that since last fall, by your request, I hare declined all new business against 
 the road and out of which I suppose I could hare realized several hundred 
 dollars; hare attended both at DeWitt and here to a great variety of little 
 Business for the Company most of which however remains unfinished and have 
 received nothing. I rvish now to be charged this sttm, to be taken into account 
 on Settlement. Truly Yours, etc. A. LINCOLN. P.S. The Draft is in favor 
 of Mr. Pardee, who is Cashier of the Bank." 
 
 Fine and extremely characteristic Lincoln Letter. In 1854 he was not only the 
 Leader of the Whig Party in Illinois but also had attained a commanding posi- 
 tion at the Bar. He was, however, always noted for the moderation of his fees 
 and up to this time the fee charged in this case was his largest.

 therein decided the question of the claim of counties and other minor municipal

 the sum above charged as a fee is not unreasonable. Grant Goodrich, N. B.

 This U'as the largest fee Lincoln ei'er received. 
 
 Lincoln Letter to Whitney 
 
 36. LINCOLN, ABRAHAM. Autograph Letter Signed. Ip., 
 4to. Springfield, June 7, 1855. To Henry C. Whitney, Illinois 
 politician and author of "Life on the Circuit with Lincoln." 
 
 "My Dear Sir: Your note containing Election urtw is received, and for -which 
 I thank you. It is all of no use however. Logan is worse beaten than any 
 other man ever was since Elections were invented beaten worse than 1,200 in 
 this County. It is conceded on all hands that the prohibitory Law is also beaten. 
 Yours truly, A. Lincoln." 
 
 Logan was a Douglas Democratic Congressman from Illinois, but on the first 
 intimation of coming trouble ii'ith the South, he declared that "in the event of 
 the election of Abraham Lincoln he would shoulder his musket to have him 
 inaugurated." He was one of the ablest and most active of the Union Generals 
 throughout the war.

 nor, of Muscatine, Iowa. 
 
 The contest was very close in the campaign of 1865 in Illinois, and Lincoln zvas 
 one of the most active workers for the neivly formed Republican party. 
 He writes: "It would be very pleasant to strike hands with the Fremonters of 
 Iowa, who have led the van so splendidly, in the grand charge which we hope 
 and believe will end in a most glorious victory. All thanks, all honor to loiva! 
 But Iowa is out of all danger, and it is no time for us, when the battle still 
 rages, to pay holyday visits to Iowa. I am sure you will e.rcuse me for remain- 
 ing in Illinois, where much hard work is still to be done. Yours very truly, A. 
 Lincoln."

 tent of embittering the feelings of our Southern brethern.' I certainly am in 
 no temper, and haz'e no purpose to embitter the feelings of the South; but 
 
 Hithether I am you can better judge by my published speeches than by 
 
 anything I zt'ou/d say in a short letter, if I were inclined noitj, as I am not, 
 to define my position aneu'." Yours truly,

"You will kindly excuse me for troubling you, but I much regret that Mr. Wood 
 still pursues the attack, and tries to bring the charge of dishonesty upon Mr. 
 H'atts, who, in all his accounts ^vith us, has been rigidly exact. Circumstances 
 hare proved that Mr. Wood is the last man who should bring a charge against 
 any one, very especially against one who has been tried and always proved 
 exact in his dealings. From remarks made by eye witnesses, in reference to 
 if'ood, he is either deranged or drinking. Many testify that he is acting very 
 strangely, and as he is noiv knozvn not to be the right man, he is trying to 
 place a just man on a level with himself. Major French, who has long known 
 Mr. Watts, ivill bear testimony to his good name. I heard much of Wood in 
 N. York and all agree that he is not a good man He is bitterly disappointed 
 that we read him aright and that he is displaced and is capable of anything 
 aganist those who tried to befriend him when he was so undesenrin<]. 
 I remain very sincerely your friend, 
 
 Mary Lincoln."

 some business, ivhich he says he has spoken to you about he expresses great 
 friendship and gratitude to you, and if you will kindly release him from his

 Interesting letter relating to the sale of her carriage and sharply criticising Mr. 
 Williamson, tutor to her children at the White House, for the proposed sale 
 of Lincoln's shawl and dressing gown which she had presented to him as relics 
 of the President. 
 
 Cltfton House, Chicago, Noi'. 11, 1865. 
 
 "Your letter, relative to the carriage, has been received. Considering it was so 
 much out of repair, I think it sold very well. Can you inform me, who was the 
 purchaser? As to Mr. Williamson for the last four years, he was tutor to my 
 little boys. My husband and myself always regarded him as an upright, intelli- 
 gent man When leaving Washington, last May, 1 directed the servant woman 
 to present him in my name (and in consideration, for the high reverence he 
 (Mr. W.) always entertained for the President) a shawl and dressing gown. 
 In doing so I felt he U'ould cherish & alivays retain these relics of so great_ and 
 good a man My astonishment was very great I assure you, when you mentioned 
 that these articles were for sale. Mr. W. certainly did not reflect when he 
 proposed such a thing / K'ish you would write to him and remonstrate upon 
 .fo strange a proceeding. Hoping a gain to hear from \ou on the subject, I 
 remain very respectfully, 
 
 Mrs. A. Lincoln." 
 
 "I am feeling very anxious, after again looking over your letter, about Mr. 
 Williamson's proposed sale, of these little relics-^t sounds very badly to me, 
 who in my deep affliction am naturallv very sensitive // possible it MUST BE 
 prevented'. ' M. L."

"/ ivrite to yoii on t^vo subjects of the very greatest imfiortance to me. I am 
 grozving very ill K'ith An.viety. Parties coming in tell me that no one knows 
 accurately ivhether the Bill for $15000 l<assed the house li'ith the $2000 a year 
 Pension Bill. Without I see the handwriting of Mr. Springer announcing that 
 the $15000 was fassed n'ith the Grand Pension Bill, may I not im/>lore you the 
 Hour you receire this letter tomorrow morning to H'rite to Mr. Springer and 
 hare him n'rite you at once the truth about it all. Of course (between our- 
 selres) if it f'assed with the other bill, it would be kept from me, and if the 
 $15000 passed the House of Representatives, they ivould try to prevent Arthur 
 from signing it. I plead with you to write to Mr. Springer about it all and 
 please enclose me his Reply without the least delay. The Great Anxiety about 
 this business is rendering me very ill. Only a fei\i lines from Springer will 
 Satisfy me. Many persons are now doubting it greatly. Mrs. Mack has acted 
 very ugly * * * Mrs. Dr. Miller returned from Wash, a few days since accom- 
 panied by Susan B. Anthony and other Suffrage Women who stopped at this

 conversation w'ith Dr. Miller save the mere civilities of Life. He tells every-

 Edwards the sister of Mrs. Lincoln, who had married a son of 
 Ninian Edwards, Governor of Illinois, and who resided in Spring-

 She commences, "My dear Mary, I have not received a reply to my last two 
 letters, but infer that you are not in writing mood, as is often my oivn case. 
 Mr. Edwards ivishes me to remind you that he had a long talk last Spring 
 with our Representative in Congress, Mr. Springer, who promised him, that he 
 would sei;:e the first opportunity to have your pension increased. The applica- 
 tion is usually presented by some one from the State where the person belongs. 
 Mr. Sprittger has written to Mr. Edwards and says he is ready and anxious 
 to sen'e you in this matter. He says that he believes the Country desires that 
 every attention and Care that Money can procure should be furnished you out 
 of the Nation Treasury. Mr. Edicards ivrote him that he would move in the 
 matter * * * Your affectionate Sister E. P. /'

 "My dear Madam, Our Mutual Friend, Mrs. Lincoln, is suffering with a Spinal 
 difficulty, the result of a dangerous Fall. She is under treatment which might 
 be successful if her means permitted her to have in her surroundings something 
 more than the bare necessities of Life. It is almost impossible for her to walk 
 a step. She is subject to fainting turns and really needs the constant attendance 
 of a Maid, but the expenses of attending the Baths and daily Treatments are 
 so heavy that she is obliged to depend for services on the good will of the 
 servants in the Establishment in zvhich she boards. Does it seem right, the 
 Widow of our Martyred Lincoln should be in this position? Assuredly not and 
 her friends here and in Washington ought to make an effort to have her pension
