Charles C. Nott, Esq. Springfield, Ills. Sep. 6. 1860

My dear Sir Your note of the 1st. with the accompanying sheets, reached me this morning. I have looked over the sheets hastily, and herewith return them. You perceive I have touched them only very lightly. The notes you add I have not attempted to compare with originals, leaving that entirely to you. I think the notes are exceedingly valuable.

Before this reaches you, you will have received my letter in relation to ``Abraham Baldwin.''2Open page

And now please accept for yourself, and present to the ``Young Men's Republican Union'' my grateful acknowledgements, for your and their exceeding kindness towards me in this matter. Yours very truly A. LINCOLN.
