Annotation
[1] ADfS, DLC-RTL. See Lincoln's letter to Stanton, February 21, and to Mrs. L. H. Phipps, supra. In addition to some uncertainty as to whether Mrs. Phipps signed her letter of March 8 as ``Mrs. L. H.'' or as Mrs. ``S. H.,'' and also as to whether the George W. Phipps, about whom Lincoln wrote on February 21 was the husband referred to, there is no further record available which would indicate that Lincoln ever sent either of his letters of March 9.
