Excerpt from The Lincoln Memorial Album-Immortelles: Original Contributions From the Hands and Hearts of Eminent Americans and Europeans, Comtemporanies With the Great Martyr Liberty From a boy of eight years I have labored assiduously, and with pride, in the accumulation of relics. While in the army this taste found a broad field in which to operate, and a zeal for the pleasant task increased with age. When the assassin sti uck at the life of the great Lincoln my channel of aggregation was changed, but my zeal and industry intensified to satisfy a thirst I possessed to make the collection of objects of interest in reference to this great and good man my sole purpose of life. I have succeeded in gathering the most valued collection of private or public mementoes and souvenirs of abraham lincoln to be iound anywhere. This is no idle boast, but one which can be readily substantiated either by reference to those having seen it, by press notices, or by personal inspection. I have desired to preserve these as a memorial of lincoln to coming genera tions, and to do so want to erect a Memorial Hall, where they may be seen by the public Without cost. My plan, to accomplish this object, is to publish the literary relics, or a book of contributions from all those from whom I have asked contribu tions of this character. These contributions, together with engraved fac similes of the autograph of each contributor, will form one of the most important features of this great work. An Album of opinions touching the life, personal recollections and public services. From the contributions, arranged typographically in such order as to make the work acceptable as a souvenir or book of reference, to adorn the library or cen ter table, as a rare work of value for its great wealth of engraved autographs alone.
