L. Z. CHITTENDEN GIVES SOME OF HIS REM
NIsCENCEs OF THE GREAT PRESIDENT
In September last, l.. f. Chittenden was invited By
number OF welknown citizens OF New YORK, Including
Vice President Levi p. Morton and Bishop Potter to
deliver an address which should embody some OF his
recollections OF Abraham Lincoln. Mr. Chttendeh

greeted On the platform with him were the Rev.
F. Walpole Warren, the Rev. DR.. r. = Macarthur

Talcott and the Rev. DR.. Maynard
Mr. Chittenden did not attempt comprehensive
treatment Of his subject lie did attempt however 10
brush away much that apocryphal relating TO Mr'

which distinguished Lincoln, SAL NJ. Cmtten-
