Annotation

[1] AES, DLC-RTL. Lincoln's endorsement is written on a letter for publication signed ``Union,'' written by J.W. Bailey of Aurora, Indiana, November 28, 1862, to the editor of the Cincinnati Gazette denouncing the appointment of George W. Lane as superintendent of the Denver Mint on grounds of his disloyalty. The editor of the Gazette, Richard Smith, forwarded the letter to Lincoln on November 29. Both Senator Lane and Governor Wright replied on December 15, 1862, confirming their recommendation and conviction of George W. Lane's loyalty. (DLC-RTL).
