How President Lincoln Franked n
Envelope for Il SO16ier

How President Lincoln Franked an
Envelope for u Soldier.
LET this go. "A. Lincoln"
When the army was encamped in Yir-
gln1a near Washington, in 1S61-62, Presi-
dent Lincoln franked a letter in the above
manner for youthful soldier named
Frank King. of Fond du Lac county. Wis.
and the envelope is still held as a sacred
treasure, by the family Of the soldier lad.
who lost his life at Gettysburg.
capt. Thomas Jones, of the pension
once, related the story in this way to a.
representative of the Washington Star:
me boys who have gone to the front
now imagine they have difficult time
gettlng their letters to home folks and
loved ones, but they have thinyS dead
easy compared to what we had in the
, war OF the Rebellion. Paper and envel-
opes were. hard to get, and stamps were
almost as scarce as diamonds Soldiers
VINO were fortunate enough to be near
washington had their letters franked by
senators and representa- tives, and Won
may Imagine that our national laWma kers
were kept busy with their pens. Presi-
dent Lincoln was even known to help the
boys out occasionally. On one occasion
Frank King, private in Wiscon-
SIN regiment encamped near Arlington
heights, got package of envelopes and.
with friend, Harry Dunn, went to the
White House and asked Mr.. Lincoln to
frank the envelopes. 1t was easier to see
the president then than it is now, and at
certain hours of the day soldier could
reach him as easily as could any of the
high officials. When the president knew
what was desired Of him he asked: eWhy
don't you get your congressman to frank
these envelopes? I am very busy The
folks, at home would like to see your
name on the envelopes replied young
King. Mr. Lincoln smiled; then, taking
a pen, he wrote on one of the envelopes:
Let this go. A. Lincoln He carefully
blotted it, and, handing 1t to King, with
the remainder of the package, said: Now,
my boy, take the rest of these to your
congressman, Scott Sloan, and tell him
said to fix them for you. I want you both
to be brave soldiers;' and, shaking the
hands of King and Dunn, he babe them
good-by. King wrote to his parents that
night and inclosed the letter in the en-.
veloped franked by Mr. Lincoln. Thu.
young fellow was killed at Gettysburg,
but that envelope is relisiously ard
lovingly priced by the surviving 1nembt.rs
of his family. Dunn, who was with K ing
when Mr.. Lincoln franked the envel ope,
called at the White House two years ter
and asked to have some enve lopes
ranked. Mr. Lincoln remembered him,
and when told that King had beer. killed
his face wore look of sorrow.
Yes the boys have comparatiy ely easy
sailing now about their letters, and the
work of the postof1ice department in til sir
behalf is no doubt properly apprecia ted
by them" ga
