To Samuel D. Marshall1Jump to section
Your letter of the 15th. is received: Your letter to me concerning our Dorman Case2Jump to section was also received, while I was very busy preparing to start on here: I handed the letter to Judge Logan and extorted a special promise from him to examine the case & write you. Although I know the Judge to be growing somewhat negligent, I did not doubt that, from the peculiarity of this case, and his very assuring promise, he would attend to it. I know he intended to do it; but I suppose he has forgotten it. I know nothing that I can here do in the matter.
As to the matter of your lost horse, I will look into it, & do something if I can. Yours truly A. LINCOLN
