A. LINCOLN. [ [!-- H2 anchor --] ]

TO N. J. ROCKWELL.

SPRINGFIELD, January 21, 1846.

DEAR SIR:—You perhaps know that General Hardin and I have a contest for the Whig nomination for Congress for this district.

He has had a turn and my argument is "turn about is fair play."

I shall be pleased if this strikes you as a sufficient argument.

Yours truly,

A. LINCOLN. [ [!-- H2 anchor --] ]

TO JAMES BERDAN.

SPRINGFIELD, April 26, 1846.
