President Abraham Lincoln Appoints a Washington Militia Officer to Help Defend the Nation’s Capital as Civil War Looms
Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated on March 4 1861 and he was immediately faced with the secession crisis the looming confrontation at Fort Sumter and the potential secession of neighboring Virginia. In order to defend the nation’s capital as the Civil War loomed and broke out from Lincoln’s inauguration to July 1861 33 companies of infantry and one company of cavalry were raised from the District militia. Since the District of Columbia was Federal territory it was the job of the President to approve the commission of the officers. Document signed Washington March 27 1861 appointing Joseph B. Moore “First Lieutenant of Infantry in the Seventh Regiment Fourth Brigade of the Militia of the District of Columbia.†The document is countersigned by Simon Cameron as Secretary of War and the Great Seal of the U.S. is still present. It soon became apparent that the local militia could not handle the crisis and Lincoln called for states in the North to send troops to assist. Some Pennsylvania militia and regulars from Minnesota arrived in the capital on April 18 to join approximately 600 District of Columbia militia 200 U.S. Marines and about 600 regulars. The Sixth Massachusetts Infantry Regiment arrived the next day after experiencing problems and violence in Baltimore. Within five days of the Seventh New York Infantry Regiment’s arrival in the Union capital 7500 volunteers were quartered in the city and by the end of the month of April the number had grown to nearly 11000 unknown

President Abraham Lincoln Appoints a Surgeon Who Served Throughout the Civil War
A very uncommon medical appointment signed by Lincoln with the appointee finishing the war as a brevet major Dr. Henry T. Legler came to the United States from Germany after participating in the failed democratic uprising there in 1848. He initially served as a surgeon with the 8th New York Volunteers a regiment composed mainly of native Germans. That unit participated in the pursuit of Gen. Thomas J. Jackson in the Shenandoah Valley and as part of Gen. Louis Blenker’s division fought at the battles of Cross Keys and New Market. In the battle of Cross Keys its killed wounded and missing numbered 220 out of a total of 550 engaged. Afterwards Legler left that regiment and in 1863 was appointed a surgeon in another New York regiment a post he held for the rest of the war. He resigned in 1866 as a brevet major of volunteers. Legler came to Oakland CA in 1875 and acquired a large practice in his profession. His prominence in the medical world procured for him in 1881 the appointment as county physician in charge of the receiving hospital. He died aged 88 one of the oldest practicing physicians in the state. Document signed as President Washington July 1 1864 naming Legler Assistant Surgeon of Volunteers effective March 27 1863. The document is countersigned by Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton unknown

Lincoln Abraham
The Compassion and Mercy of President Abraham Lincoln: He Saves a Poor Soldier’s Life Pardoning an Admitted Deserter Whose Crime Carried the Death Penalty But Who Pleaded That He had Deserted Because his Family was Destitute
The deserter also made the surprising claim that he was a War Department Secret Service asset whose work needed to continue Lincoln’s compassion and mercy are central to his legacy and the picture that has come down to us envisions him as a man who was generous of spirit who pardoned soldiers who fell asleep on guard duty showed leniency whenever possible even to deserters and aided widows and orphans. Because of his position as President he had opportunities to prove or disprove this reputation as many requests for pardons deferrals of executions and pleas to aid soldiers came to him. From the start of the Civil War Lincoln felt the weight of the sacrifice that so many families were making for the Union and he saw that tens and then hundreds of thousands of men – sons husbands and brothers – were dying. He was not anxious for any additional lives to be taken. He was especially interested in mitigating death sentences for military offenses such as desertion and was moved by the pleas made by fathers and mothers on behalf of children under arrest and incarcerated. So he spent time reviewing the results of army courts-martial cases. His writings show that he seldom turned the needy aside which did not meet with the approval of his generals or legal staff. Attorney General Edward Bates’ pardon clerk later wrote of Bates that he discovered “his most important duty was to keep all but the most deserving cases from coming before the kind Mr. Lincoln at all; since there was nothing harder for him to do than to put aside a prisoner’s application and he could not resist it when it was urged by a pleading wife and a weeping child.†Abraham Lower enlisted in the 72nd Regiment Pa. Volunteers as a sergeant on August 10 1861. He deserted and was arrested in 1863. On July 25 of that year he wrote directly to President Lincoln from his cell in Philadelphia. In the letter he admits deserting gives his reason why as being the destitution of his family and further states that though not in the U.S. service he was acting under commission of Pennsylvania Governor Andrew Curtin and also aiding War Department secret service activities in Pennsylvania and Maryland. He gives specific examples of his actions. The William H. Shearman he mentions was his brother-in-law but was surely a secret service agent in the War Department as records of that department show a large payment of $5000 to him for his activities in 1863. Lower claims to essentially have been involved in Shearman’s activities but whether he was or not is not known. Certainly he swings from a simple plea for mercy to claiming to be a War Department asset. Shearman went to see President Lincoln to plead for his brother-in-law’s life. He delivered Lower’s letter which reads in part: “The bearer of this document William H. Shearman a special officer in the secret service of the War. Dept intending to visit you in my behalf I deemed it proper to write a full statement of my case. At the breaking out of the Rebellion. I enlisted in the 19th Regt. P. V. for 3 months service and at the expiration of the term of service I was honorably discharged on the 10th of August 1861 I reenlisted in Co A. 72nd Regt. P. V. in December 1861. While the Regt. was encamped …I received very discouraging news from home my Wife & Child being sick and in a suffering condition without the means to live on and no one to take care of her all the male members of my own and her family being then in the Army in all making 7 men from the one family being thus placed. Without protection or a helping hand humanity demanded that I should risk all dangers to protect and save my family from starvation which was a staring them in the face with every prospect’s of a hard winter. I left my Regt. without proper leave and went home intending to return in a few days. But through force of circumstance and the earnest entreaties of my wife and mother not to leave them in a destitute condition without any supporter I was induced to remain at home. “At the time of the advance of the Rebel Army into Pennsylvania in September 1862 I was residing in Delaware Co Pa. On the call of Gov Curtin for Vol. I enlisted in a company from Chester Borough and was elected 1st Lieutenant. the company was attached to the 16th Regt. State Militia and went into service in the state of Maryland. I have a commission from Gov. Curtin to that effect on the return home of the Company I assisted Capt. Wm. Gray of Chester to recruit and fill a company for 9 months service which company was afterwards attached to a Phila. Regt. On Mr. Shearman’s getting his appointment I was appointed an aid by him and succeeded in aiding in the arrest of several abettors of the rebels. At the Point of Rocks I entrapped the spy Dobson now confined in the Capitol prison…At Seaford Delaware we arrested Dr. Hugh. Martin and several others: Knights of the Golden Circle whom we entrapped…we also seized the sloop Ramsey on the E. S. Md which was sold by the U. S. Commissioner at Phila. as a prize. I was transferred by Mr. Shearman to Col. Fish at Baltimore. and was empowered by him as an agent of the secret service in his Dept. While employed by him I succeeded in entrapping and and arresting a gang of blockade runners and abettors…Mr. Cook Post Master of Chaptico St Mary’s Co with a mail from Virginia and letters he wished me to take to Richmond. Mr Keys for sending information to the Rebel Govt. Mr Addison suspected of being a rebel agent. Mr. Dorsey a member of Jackson’s Army. Mr. Roberts with goods to take to Richmond. W. Goodrich H. Curnan and A. Helmlin acting as guides & Agent’s for Blockade runners…I have information of several parties who are sending communications to the South who I am positive I can detect having become connected with the Knights of the Golden Circle so as to enable me to entrap them with the knowledge I have of these parties I am confident I can benefit the Government in the present capacity more than I could in any other way. If I am granted the privilege of still continuing in search of them. “Having given a plain statement of my case and also of the services I have rendered the Govt. I ask of you as a Father & Gentleman. and as a Chief Magistrate and an officer who can appreciate the services I have rendered and who can temper Mercy & humanity with Justice to grant me all the benefits in a fair and impartial hearing that may arise in the consideration of my case. I am fully sensible of the wrong I have committed but I have tried to atone for it by doing all that laid in my power to assist the Administration detecting the enemy at home. even by placing my life in the balance in case I should be detected in exposing those who are plotting to destroy the Government. “Praying that you will look into my case in as favorable a light as possible and grant the begged for pardon either by ordering me to be transferred to Mr Shearman in the Secret Service or by ordering my discharge so that I can still continue to follow and bring to Justice those who are doing all in their power to prevent the reconstructing of the Union. By so doing you will never have cause to regret by any of my future actions and I will ever pray for your success in all your transactions and do all in my power hereafter to aid your wishes and that of the Government…Respectfully yours to Command Abraham. Lower Jr.†This letter is in the Lincoln Papers in the Library of Congress. Letter signed Washington August 4 1863 almost surely to Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton. “Let Abraham Lower 72nd Regiment Pa.

Lincoln Abraham
Abraham Lincoln Is Grateful For Much-Needed Public Support For His Emancipation Proclamation
He writes a composer thanking him for sending a copy of his new “Emancipation March†published by the same firm that published “The Battle Cry of Freedom†The only known letter of Lincoln from January 1863 relating to or mentioning emancipation known to be in private hands On March 4 1861 President Abraham Lincoln delivered his Inaugural Address to a nation in peril divided over the issue of slavery. He explained his belief that secession was unconstitutional and that he intended to do all in his power to save the Union. In addition just as he had promised throughout the election campaign he emphasized “…I have no purpose…to interfere with the institution of slavery in the states where it exists…I have no inclination to do so…†Though Lincoln personally hated slavery his priority was saving the Union and he thus tried to reassure the South by saying he had no desire or right to make the abolition of slavery his goal. But the Southern states did not return to the Union in fact four more states seceded and a month into Lincoln’s term Fort Sumter was fired upon and the Civil War commenced. In 1861 and 1862 the Union armies experienced repeated defeats in the crucial Eastern theater. There was Bull Run and Second Bull Run Stonewall Jackson’s big win in the Shenandoah Valley the string of debacles in the Virginia Peninsular campaign the rise of the formidable Robert E. Lee in that campaign the loss of hope of taking Richmond and many more setbacks. Across the Union there was widespread exasperation with both the Army of the Potomac and the Lincoln administration and a growing uncertainty that the war could be won. In early 1862 Lincoln would lament “the bottom is out of the tub.†As a result of these factors by July 1862 the President had decided that emancipation of the slaves was a military necessity. Lincoln knew that many thousands of enslaved people were ready to fight for the Union. He wrote “This is not a question of sentiment or taste but one of physical force which may be measured …Keep that force and you can save the Union. Throw it away and the Union goes with it.†So on September 22 1862 Lincoln issued a Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation declaring that all slaves in states which were still in rebellion on January 1 1863 “shall be then thenceforward and forever free.†This caused a firestorm in the North as while many praised the President opposition was strong and vocal. In the upcoming Congressional elections of 1862 the Democrats fought on a fierce anti-emancipation platform with one delegate at their conference adapting their slogan to read; ‘The Constitution as it is the Union as it was and the Negroes where they are.’ The correspondence of soldiers in the field indicates that quite a number were against emancipation and some threatened to throw down their arms if the war came to be about freeing Negroes rather than saving the Union. The election results in November 1862 seemed to endorse Democratic opposition to emancipation with a net gain for them of 36 Congressional seats; they won other victories too including the governorships of New York and New Jersey. But Lincoln persevered. On January 1 1863 he used his authority as Commander in Chief under the U.S. Constitution to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. He stated the military necessity of his action ordered slaves freed in areas that were in rebellion against the U.S. declared that the military would enforce their freedom and received former slaves into the U.S. military. Upon signing the Proclamation Lincoln affirmed that he had never felt “more certain that I was doing right.†Lincoln needed support now more than ever and it was all the more satisfying if the support was public and helped enlist others to reach similar conclusions. George E. Fawcett was a teacher of instrumental music at Greenwood Academy in Muscatine Iowa. He had published a number of previous musical compositions and he was in the President’s corner. In late 1862 he wrote “The President’s Emancipation March†and dedicated it to Abraham Lincoln. The sheet music was published and disseminated by the well-known Chicago-based music publishing firm Root & Cady which was the most successful music publisher of the Civil War and published many of the war’s most popular songs. The firm’s founders were Chauncey Marvin Cady and E. T. Root whose older brother was George F. Root one of the Civil War’s greatest composers whose his biggest hit was “The Battle Cry of Freedomâ€. The cover of the sheet music for Fawcett’s song was plain with a simple black line border centered on the cover. The title is printed in large black-shaded lettering at a horizontal angle. It contains text that reads: “Dedicated to Abraham Lincoln A foe to Tyrants and My Country's Friend†and above this is a poem stanza attributed to John Greenleaf Whittier. “The President’s Emancipation March†was well-received and being celebratory doubtless assisted in generating support for both Lincoln and emancipation. A copy of the sheet music is in the American Memory section of the Library of Congress. After the January 1 proclamation date Fawcett sent a copy of the march to President Lincoln himself. Lincoln soon responded. Letter Signed on Executive Mansion letterhead Washington January 26 1863 to Fawcett. “Allow me to thank you cordially for your thoughtful courtesy in sending me a copy of your “Emancipation March.†The body of the letter is in the handwriting of Lincoln’s secretary future Secretary of State John Hay. We searched the papers of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum the Abraham Lincoln Papers at the Library of Congress auction records going back four decades and the primary resource in the field Basler’s “Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln.†We discovered that despite the enormity of his issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation following its signing on January 1 1863 Lincoln wrote about or mentioned emancipation by name in just three letters during that month. One written to John A. McClernand on January 8 was an important defense of the proclamation; it sold two decades ago for some $750000 and is now owned by a foundation and on loan to the Library of Congress. The other two letters were references to the proclamation; one was sent to John W. Forney on January 18 and it is in an institution; the other is this letter to George Fawcett. unknown

President Abraham Lincoln Original Signed Proclamation Conveying the Coveted “Thanks of Congress†to the Commodore Whose Victory in 1861 Led to the First Raising of the U.S. Flag Over a Confederate Fortification in the Civil War
Lincoln lauds Silas Stringham’s "distinguished service in the capture of Forts Hatteras and Clarke.†In early 1861 the commander-in-chief of the U.S. Army General Winfield Scott developed what he called the “Anaconda Plan†which aimed to squeeze the Confederacy by blockading its ports launching amphibious attacks at key points along the Southern coast and seizing control of vital inland waterways such as the Mississippi River. When the Civil War broke out the U.S. government began to implement this plan. In the opening months of the war there was little good news for the North and the public clamor for a victory grew daily. Instead on July 21 1861 the Battle of Bull Run resulted in disaster for Union arms. Frustration built and the U.S. Government became increasingly anxious to show that it had a viable plan and could field forces capable of winning. In this heated atmosphere in July and August the U.S. Navy began to establish the blockade. To complement this effort it determined to launch its first amphibious assault since the Mexican War: an assault on North Carolina’s Outer Banks. This locale was chosen because the Union leadership saw the value of seizing control of the navigable channels into North Carolina sounds as with these under control U.S. forces would be in position to take key points on the Carolina mainland. These coastal strong-points then would serve as bases from which they could push inland to disrupt vital Confederate agricultural supply areas and the rail lines of communication running through the state to the Confederate capital of Richmond. Possession of these waters would also help eliminate the threat to U.S. shipping from rebel privateers – a significant problem that threatened to grow and was already causing disruptions to trade as marine insurance rates in the north sky-rocketed. Hatteras Inlet commanded the entrance to North Carolina’s sounds leading Union commanders to decide to seize its surrounding shoreline first. General Benjamin Butler who previously had commanded the Union garrison at Fort Monroe in Hampton Roads became the landing force commander. Commodore Silas Stringham commander of the Atlantic Blockading Squadron led the supporting naval forces. The task force Stringham commanded was the largest that the U.S. Navy had assembled up to that point in the war. It consisted of three steam frigates three gunboats and a converted sidewheel steamer which all told mounted 149 guns including modern rifled naval guns. Rounding out the task force were two chartered vessels acting as troop transports and a collection of surfboats and auxiliary tugs. The transports and auxiliaries carried a landing force of two New York infantry regiments for a total of slightly more than 900 men. The immediate objective of the operation was the capture of two forts – Clarke and Hatteras – that guarded Hatteras Inlet. These forts comprised a significant part of the Confederacy’s military forces on the Outer Banks. On the morning of August 27 1861 Confederate lookouts at Hatteras lighthouse spotted Commodore Stringham’s ships on the horizon. Soon thereafter the Union warships began bombarding both forts pounding them with a steady stream of accurate fire. With the bombardment complete the Union army troops came ashore. Soon Fort Clarke’s garrison had retreated to Fort Hatteras where the Confederates were reinforced and put up their defense. For a while the advantage shifted to the southerners as bad weather drove Stringham’s ships out of firing range of the forts. But Union naval forces resumed their attack when the weather moderated the next morning and by late morning the battered Southern troops had had enough and Fort Hatteras surrendered. In the end no Union ground attack was needed because of the success of the naval forces under Stringham. In fact not a man on the Union side was killed. How happy was Lincoln to receive the news General Butler in his autobiography described the meeting he and Gustavus Fox Assistant Secretary of the Navy had with Lincoln in the White House to tell him the news. “…The President was called and when our errand was hinted to him he immediately came in his night shirt. Everybody knows how tall Lincoln was and he seemed very much taller in that garment; and Fox was about five feet nothing. In a few hurried words not waiting for any forms or ceremonies Fox communicated the news and then he and Lincoln fell into each other’s arms. That is Fox put his arms around Lincoln about as high as his hips and Lincoln reached down over him so that his arms were pretty near the floor apparently and thus holding each other they flew around the room once or twice and the night shirt was completely agitated.†The victory provided a much-needed boost to northern spirits and enabled the people to see that the Lincoln Administration’s plan to fight the war had substance and could bring victories. As such its political value exceeded its considerable military value. On the military side the Hatteras expedition demonstrated the central importance of naval fire support to amphibious operations. Additionally Stringham innovated by having his ships fire while on the move rather than anchoring and slugging it out with nearby shore batteries as navies had done in the past. This made the defenders’ task more difficult while not affecting the Union warships’ ability to put their ordnance on target. Stringham’s brilliant tactic was used extensively throughout the war by the U.S. Navy especially in taking control of the Mississippi River. Stringham was promoted from Commodore to Real Admiral. On July 11 1862 President Lincoln demonstrating his appreciation of the role Commodore Stringham had played in the struggle for the Union wrote to the legislative branch recommending that he be awarded the coveted Thanks of Congress. “I recommend…Silas H. Stringham now on the retired list for distinguished services in the capture of Forts Hatteras and Clark he specified. The Thanks were voted and approved on February 7 1863. This made Stringham one of just 15 navy officers and 15 army officers ever to receive the Thanks of Congress during the Civil War. However due to administrative delays it was not until later that the paperwork was completed and the naval hero was sent his official appreciation. Just a day before his second inauguration President Lincoln who had initiated the process took upon himself the responsibility of conveying the Thanks along with his own personal sentiments. He did so in this communication Proclamation Signed Executive Mansion March 3 1865 to Rear Admiral Stringham. “It is my duty as it is my sincere pleasure to transmit herewith a copy of the Joint Resolution of Congress approved 7 February 1863 tendering you and the officers its thanks for your distinguished service in the capture of Forts Hatteras and Clarke on the coast of North Carolina.†Interestingly although addressed to the Admiral and thus technically a letter because of its official nature Lincoln treated it as a document and executed it with his full signature. We cannot recall seeing another instance of Lincoln interjecting his own feelings into his wartime correspondence or documents which were almost uniformly impersonal and to the point. But with victory at hand he allowed his exuberance to show. The retained secretarial copy of Admiral Stringham’s response is present and adds his perspective. On March 6 1865 he wrote President Lincoln saying “I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of the 3rd instant transmitting me a copy of the Joint Resolution of Congress approved 7 February 1863 and to express my appreciation of the honor conferred upon me as well as the pleasure which every officer must feel at the evidence that his efforts are appreciated by his country.†The congressional resolution mentioned in the letter is not present but stated “That the thanks for Congress be and are hereby given to…Rear Admiral Silas Stringham…†unknown

In a contemporary review entitled "Neo-Hebraic Literature in America" New York 1900 Bernard Drachman noted that Milhamah Be-Shalom "is a defense of Judaism against the attacks of Christian missionaries particularly against the culumnies of McCall in his notorious Netibot Olam and a sharp criticism on the New Testament. The work is in the form of a debate between Peter a Christian priest who represents Christianity and Abraham a Jewish Rabbi and preacher who defends the cause of Judaism. Its usefulness as furnishing Hebrew reading Jews with arguments by which to refute the persistent proselytizing efforts of Christian missionaries is very great. It is written in a pure clear and simple style which renders its perusal easy for any one sic acquainted with Hebrew. " Singerman 5131.

The Persian Cyclamen
London 1804. Hand-coloured and colour-printed aquatint with stipple and line engraving by Elmes. Paper watermarked 1804. The most strikingly beautiful flower plates ever to be printed in England. "The Persian Cyclamen Cyclamen persicum Miller parent of the florist's cyclamen. is a native of the countries and islands at the eastern end of the Mediterranean but not of Persia itself. It is the largest flowered of an attractive genus of small plants much grown in modern times by connoisseurs. The Persian Cyclamen was not the first of its kind to become known in western Europe. Cyclamen europeaum the `Bleeding Nun' as it was called was thought to be dangerous to pregnant women: any unfortunate lady in this condition who stepped over it might immediately miscarry. John Gerrard the Elizabethan herbalist believed this implicitly and describes how he fenced his plants around with sticks with others laid across them `lest any woman should by lamentable experiment find my words to be true by stepping over the same.' When the baby was nearing full term and delivery was to be encouraged wearing of the disc-like tuber `hanged about' the expectant mothers had a salutary effect and Gerrard told his wife to use it when attending confinements. Its use by midwifes dates back to the days of the Greeks." Ronald King. The Temple of Flora by Robert Thornton. 1981 p. 52. Thornton's Temple of Flora is the greatest English colour-plate flower book. ".Thornton inherited a competent fortune and trained as a doctor. He appears to have had considerable success in practice and was appointed both physician to the Marylebone Dispensary and lecturer in medical botany at Guy's and St. Thomas's hospitals. But quite early in his career he embarked on his. great work. What Redouté produced under the patronage of L'Héritier Marie Antoinette the Empress Josephine Charles X and the Duchesse de Berry Thornton set out to do alone. Numerous important artists were engaged. twenty-eight paintings of flowers commissioned from Abraham Pether known as `Moonlight Pether' Philip Reinagle . Sydenham Edwards and Peter Henderson. The result. involved Thornton in desperate financial straits. In an attempt to extricate himself he organized the Royal Botanic Lottery under the patronage of the Prince Regent. it is easy to raise one's eyebrows at Thornton's unworldly and injudicious approach to publishing. But he produced. one of the loveliest books in the world" Alan Thomas Great Books and Book Collecting pp.142-144. Third state of three of this plate from the Temple of Flora. `In the first state the top the castle is indistinct and has no pinnacles on the towers and this is the first feature to inspect. The hillside is pure aquatint; the shading behind the cyclamen flowers is lightly cross-hatched while the tree trunk to the right has only a few lines on it. In the second state the castle is more prominent and five distinct sharp pinnacles have been added while many extra etched lines are to be seen - notably behind the cyclamen flowers; on the tree trunk; and under the cyclamen leaves on the left which themselves stand out more sharply. The principal change in the third state is the addition of the aquatint to the sky on the left so that only a streak of light remains above the mountains while in the earlier states the light reached the top corner. The leaves of the cyclamen now have. light and dark patches the coarse-grained aquatint has been added to the middle distance. Much additional aquatinting has been applied to other parts of the plate. The most easily-noticed difference however are the changes in the castle between states one and two and in the sky between states two three." Handasyde Buchanan. Thornton's Temple of Flora 1951 p.15.

Lincoln Abraham
President Abraham Lincoln Appoints One of the Earliest 49ers and President of “The Society of California Pioneers†to a Senior Treasury Position in San Francisco
William Farwell was a prominent California editor who had campaigned for him in that state In September 1848 the print on the newspapers announcing the discovery of gold in California had barely dried before some enterprising young men began preparing to go there. One ship was chartered by 152 well-educated young men of whom Willard B. Farwell was one who named it after the famous statesman Edward Everett. At that time Everett was president of Harvard college and was a mentor to some of the wayfarers. As a going away gift he presented the company with 300 volumes of the works of major authors. The vessel left Boston January 10 1849 and arrived at San Francisco July 7th. The company brought with it a knock-down steamer hull cabin boilers and engine. A smaller boat was obtained and christened The Pioneer and it would be the first steamer to reach the gold fields themselves. The Pioneer launched on August 12 and five days later wrote Farwell himself the little Pioneer sailed up the Sacramento River reaching its destination early in the morning on August 19th. The miners already on site cheered until they were hoarse and the day was given up to jollification and whisky. Farwell stayed in California and became editor of a popular newspaper that supported the policies of the new Republican Party. Dr. Anson Henry Sen. Edward D. Baker and Abraham Lincoln were friends and prominent Illinois Whig politicos back in Lincoln’s Springfield days. Henry moved there to practice medicine when Lincoln was assistant surveyor of Sangamon County. Henry emigrated to Oregon when he was appointed Indian agent for that territory at the specific suggestion of Lincoln. The two men stayed in contact. In fact states “Mr. Lincoln & Friends†Anson “acted as the Administration’s eyes and ears†on the west coast. President Lincoln appointed him surveyor-general of Washington Territory in 1861. Edward D. Baker moved to California in 1852 and when Henry advised him that he could win the upcoming Senate election there Baker went to Oregon. He was elected and started serving in the U.S. Senate in late 1860. Lincoln was so close to Baker that he named one of his sons after him and was devastated when Baker was killed in action leading a Union regiment at the Battle of Balls Bluff in 1861. Henry and Baker were friends of Farwell who was also Baker’s biographer. One of these men clearly placed Farwell in touch with Lincoln and Farwell became involved in the Lincoln election campaign in California. As the Lincoln Papers in the Library of Congress point out Farwell was in direct communication with Lincoln about events on the West Coast during that campaign. Farwell predicted to Lincoln accurately that he would do well in the Golden State and in December 1860 wrote the President-Elect “I trust the result gave you sincere gratification.†he President-Elect asked Baker to make some recommendations for appointments to be made for posts on the West Coast. On April 3 1861 shortly after Lincoln’s inauguration Baker wrote him a letter on this subject: “I have named Mr Willard B. Farwell for Naval Officer of the port of San Francisco. He has been for four years and upwards the editor of the Daily Alta California the most influential independent public journal in California. In every crisis he has caused it to evince Republican tendencies and has rendered us immense aid and service. He has represented the city of San Francisco in the legislature. He has shown high courage when such a quality was greatly needed. He is a man of character talents and education.†Lincoln concurred. Document signed Washington April 15 1861 appointing Willard B. Farwell as naval officer for the District of San Francisco. The position of naval officer was not a military one; the naval officer was the chief deputy to the Collector of a port a Treasury appointment. Thus this document is also signed by Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase. Lincoln made this appointment during the time when the U.S. Senate was in recess. He reappointed Farwell in July 1861 for the Senate’s confirmation. To illustrate the types of tasks this post involved Farwell went to Europe and the East to ferret out frauds in importations of wines. Later in life Farwell was President of “The Society of California Pioneers.†Document comes matted unknown

Lincoln Abraham
Just a Few Weeks Before the 1860 Election Abraham Lincoln Writes from Springfield Sending His Autograph to a Young Man
Letters of Lincoln so close to the fateful election are not common The Presidential election of 1860 was perhaps the most consequential of American history. Abraham Lincoln defeated Southern Democrat John C. Breckinridge Democrat Stephen A. Douglas and Constitutional Union candidate John Bell. The electoral split between Northern and Southern Democrats was emblematic of the severe sectional split particularly over slavery and in the months following Lincoln’s election and before his inauguration in March 1861 seven Southern states led by South Carolina on Dec. 20 1860 seceded from the Union setting the stage for the Civil War. Willis Ogden was Colonel of the 23rd N.G.N.Y. National Guard of New York. He was an educator a philanthropist and a patriot and for more than fifty years was prominent in Brooklyn financial and civic affairs. He would serve as president of the Board of Trustees of the Brooklyn Academy of Music. In 1860 he was a young attorney. Letter signed Springfield Il October 13 1860 too Willis L. Ogden. “Dear Sir Herewith I send you my autograph which you request. Yours truly A. Lincolnâ€. The text is in the hand of John Nicolay Lincoln’s secretary and biographer unknown
