Selected Correspondance of Abraham Lincoln 1863 Comment On A Note
by Abraham Lincoln
NEW YORK, October 15, 1863.
DEAR SIR: On the point of leaving I am told, by a gentleman to whose
statements I attach credit, that the opposition policy for the
Presidential campaign will be to "abstain from voting."
J.
[Comment.]
More likely to abstain from stopping, once they get at it, until they
shall have voted several times each.
