To William Schouler1Jump to section
`
I am remaining here for two weeks to frank documents. Now that the Presidential candidates are all set, I will thank you for your undisguised opinion as to what New England generally, and Massachusetts particularly will do. Your opinion as to the nomination of Taylor held so good, that I have some confidence in your predictions. Very truly yours A. LINCOLN
