Hon: J. A. Matteson Springfield, Nov. 25. 1858

Dear Sir Last summer when a movement was made in court against your Road,2Open page you engaged us to be on your side. It has so happened that, so far, we have performed no service in the case; but we lost a cash fee offered us on the other side. Now, being hard run, we propose a little compromise. We will claim nothing for the matter just mentioned, if you will relieve us at once from the old matter at the Marine & Fire Insurance Co. and be greatly obliged to boot. Can you not do it? Yours truly A. LINCOLN
