Annotation

[1] ALS, DLC-Nicolay Papers. Robert C. Schenck, Donn Piatt, and David K. Cartter, of Ohio, were being mentioned as possible appointees to the cabinet in the event of Chase's declination, and Lincoln probably wished to have them meet the Illinois party leaders William B. Ogden, David L. Phillips, Ozias M. Hatch, and Jesse K. Dubois. A check mark preceding each name, except Ogden's, probably indicates Nicolay's performance of instructions.
