                    <text>&lt;p&gt;Springfield, March 7 1843
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Friend Bennett:
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your letter of this day was handed me by Mr. Miles.  It is too late now to effect the object you desire.  On yesterday morning the [most?] of the whig members from this District got together and agreed to hold the convention at Tremont in Tazewell county.  I am sorry to hear that any of the whigs of your county, or, indeed of any county should [illegible] be against conventions.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;On last Wednesday evening a meeting of all the whigs then here from all parts of the State was held, and the question of the propriety of conventions was brought up and fully discussed and at the end of the discussion, a resolution recommending the system of conventions to all the whigs of the State, was unanimously adopted.  Other Resolutions also were passed, all of which will appear in the next Journal.  The meeting also appointed a committee to draft an 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;address to the People of the State, which address will also appear in the next Journal.  In it, you will find a brief argument in favor of conventions; and although I wrote it myself, I &lt;u&gt;will&lt;/u&gt; say to you that it's conclusive upon the point that it can not be reasonably answered.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The right way for you to do, is to hold your meeting and appoint delegates anyhow; and if there be any who will not take part, let it be so.  The matter will work so well this time that even they who now oppose will come in next time. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The convention will be held at Tremont on the 5th April, and according to the rule we have adopted your county is to have two delegates---being double the number of your representatives.  
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If there be any good why who disposed still to stick out against conventions, get him at least to read the argument in their favor in the address.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours as ever
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A. Lincoln 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mr. John Bennett
Petersburg, lls
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;per favor of 
Mr. Miles
&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Springfield, March 7 1843
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Friend Bennett:
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your letter of this day was handed me by Mr. Miles.  It is too late now to effect the object you desire.  On yesterday morning the [most?] of the whig members from this District got together and agreed to hold the convention at Tremont in Tazewell county.  I am sorry to hear that any of the whigs of your county, or, indeed of any county should [illegible] be against conventions.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;On last Wednesday evening a meeting of all the whigs then here from all parts of the State was held, and the question of the propriety of conventions was brought up and fully discussed and at the end of the discussion, a resolution recommending the system of conventions to all the whigs of the State, was unanimously adopted.  Other Resolutions also were passed, all of which will appear in the next Journal.  The meeting also appointed a committee to draft an 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;address to the People of the State, which address will also appear in the next Journal.  In it, you will find a brief argument in favor of conventions; and although I wrote it myself, I &lt;u&gt;will&lt;/u&gt; say to you that it's conclusive upon the point that it can not be reasonably answered.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The right way for you to do, is to hold your meeting and appoint delegates anyhow; and if there be any who will not take part, let it be so.  The matter will work so well this time that even they who now oppose will come in next time. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The convention will be held at Tremont on the 5th April, and according to the rule we have adopted your county is to have two delegates---being double the number of your representatives.  
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If there be any good why who disposed still to stick out against conventions, get him at least to read the argument in their favor in the address.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours as ever
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A. Lincoln 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mr. John Bennett
Petersburg, lls
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;per favor of 
Mr. Miles
&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints established their headquarters in Nauvoo, Illinois in 1839. Construction on a temple in Nauvoo began in 1841, lasting five years. In 1846, local hostility and violence forced the Mormons to leave Nauvoo and the recently completed temple. The church sold the temple building in March 1848. The temple building was destroyed by fire in October 1848 and eventually demolished in 1865. In 1937, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints&amp;nbsp;reacquired the plot where the temple once stood and constructed a new temple on the original site in 2002. The larger 2002 building replicates the first building's exterior design while using a modern interior layout.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This collection includes a drawing of original Nauvoo Temple's exterior as it appeared in 1846.</text>

                    <text>&lt;p&gt;Washington, June 23. 1849
Hon: J.M. Clayton
Dear Sir, 
My friend Martin P. Sweet
will probably be an applicant for some diplomatic appointment. A direct recommendation 
from me would be in conflict, as I think, 
with at least one recommendation I have already made, and might be excepted to by 
other aspirants in that portion of our state where
I reside. After saying so much, it affords me 
great pleasure to bear testimony in behalf of
Mr. Sweets high merits intellectually, morrally
and politically; and to repeat, what I have 
so often said, that some encouragement should 
be given to the North Western District of Illinois.
I have not any doubt that in that District
Mr. Sweet is the favorite, for any appointment
which may be given- 
Your Obedient Servant
A. Lincoln
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have communicated with Mr. Holloway who is the owner of the claim against Snyders Estate  From his answer I feel authorised to make you a proposition if it be promptly accepted and complied with. instead of your mode of calculating interest I propose to take the lands at nearly Four dollars per acre say three dollars per acre and four hundred and fifty dollars besides. this is to leave enough to pay expenses in relation to the land examining titles for &amp;amp; agency for a short time. this in truth amounts to very near the same thing as your proposition in effect but I thought it would be more acceptable to him in that shape.  The ballance to be promptly paid in cash.  Please let me hear from you as soon as practicable.  I expect to be at St Louis in about ten days &amp;amp; should like to close the matter there.  I will write you as soon as I reach St Louis, but hope that will not delay your answering me here

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I wrote you sometime since making a proposition in regard to the Snyder debt.  I expected that if it was received it would be acted on at once
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I shall be at Saint Louis next week say from the middle to the last.  I should like to see or hear from you there at least  by the 22nd  And I hope you will then be prepared with the whole or greater part at least of the money=  My instructions now are to close up the concern.  And the proposition made cannot be extended or continued if not promptly complied with
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;S T Logan
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir,
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I wrote you sometime since making a proposition in regard to the Snyder debt.  I expected that if it was received it would be acted on at once
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I shall be at Saint Louis next week say from the middle to the last.  I should like to see or hear from you there at least  by the 22nd  And I hope you will then be prepared with the whole or greater part at least of the money=  My instructions now are to close up the concern.  And the proposition made cannot be extended or continued if not promptly complied with
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours respectfully
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;S T Logan
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hon G. Koerner
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Belleville
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Illinois
