repaid, he told him To make n coffin

Speed knew of IL. At this time. us was
the case till Lincoln was elected 70 this
presidency, his one special Rival io Illi

Douglass had more of the social graces

him that nothing would be more inter

there was what nowadays would have
been called Irritation. This course OF
action did not spur Lincoln on in his de-
votion. but made him less ardent, and he
concluded. after much self-worriment,
to break off the engagement, which he
did. but at the same interview there was
reconciliation and n renewal OF the
engagement.-John Gilmer Speed, In
