Mr. Wm. C. Bryant: Springfield, Ills. June 28. 1860

My dear Sir: Please accept my thanks for the honor done me by your kind letter of the 16th. I appreciate the danger against which you would guard me; nor am I wanting in the purpose to avoid it. I thank you for the additional strength your words give me, to maintain that purpose. Your friend & servant A. LINCOLN
