Meeting held by the members of the “Working Men’s Christian Institute,” Drury Lane, W. C.

Dear Sir: We, the members of the “Working Men’s Christian Institute,” Parker street, Drury Lane, W. C., in meeting assembled, beg to convey to Mrs. Lincoln, to the United States government, and to the American people, our deep sympathy with them in the great loss they have sustained by the martyrdom of President Lincoln, and we fervently hope that the principles of Union and emancipation, which were so dear to the late lamented President, and in the defence of which his blood was shed, may become still dearer to the American people, and that, from the present struggle, the United States may come forth a glorious, a united, and a free nation.

In behalf of the meeting:

R. NICHOLLS,
Chairman.
