M. W. Delahay, Esq. Executive Mansion
My dear Sir March 13. 1861
You will start for Kansas before I see you again; and when I saw you a moment this morning, I forgot to ask you about some of the Kansas appointments, which I intended to do. If you care much about them, you can write, as I think I shall not make the appointments just yet. Yours in haste A. LINCOLN
Annotation
[1] ALS, DLC-HW. Delahay to Lincoln March 29 expressed hope that `` . . . the appointment of Surveyor General for Kansas . . . '' would not be made ``until I can see you. . . . '' (DLC-RTL). Delahay himself received the appointment.
