To Salmon P. Chase1Jump to section

Executive Mansion, Washington, July 18, 1862.

My dear Sir: Mr. Senator Doolittle informs me that the Wisconsin delegation have unanimously recommended persons for assessors and collectors throughout their State, and that the paper showing this is filed with you. If so, I am in favor of adopting their ``slate'' at once, and so disposing of one State. Yours truly,

A. LINCOLN.
