ercises was paper read by Gen
Charles A. Hamlin OF this city, son o.
Ex-Vice President Hannibal Hamlin
on THE Origin Of Lincoln Day" II
which he disclosed some interesting un
written history OF the Lincoln admins.
tration.
In reviewing the historic friendship
between President Lincoln and Vice
President Hamlin. he revealed the fact
that the radical Republican leaders OF
Congress inaugurated formidable
movement In 1863 to retire Mr.. Lincoln
from the Presidency at the end of his
term and make Mr.. Hamliii his sue
cessor. They held private conference
and offered Mr.. Hamlin the Republican
nomination for President. but he de-
cllned and said: Il am Lincoln's
friend. and he is my friend. He Is now
right and II is our duty to support
him"
This paralyzed the movement against
Lincoln. although the opposition turn
ed to Secretary Chase as its candidate
and for a few months appeared to be
formidable.
Gen. Hamlin explained that the ten
der Of the Presidential nomination to
his father was the outcome Of the seri-
Gus dissatisfaction with Lincoln in the
dark days of 1861 that existed among
the radical leaders in Congress This
originated in the difference of opinion
between Lincoln and the radicals over
the outbreak Of the rebellion. Lincoln
did not expect great war.
The radicals. such as Zachariah
Chandler. Thaddeus Stevens. Hanni-
bal Hamlin and others, believed that a
gigantic rebellion was impending and
urged the President to prepare to place
an army Of 5O0, 600 men in the field. He
called FOR 5000 men and the radicals
were discouraged. The failure of the
administration after two years of fight
ing 10 suppress the rebellion. the sup
posed influence Of Seward with Lincoln.
the trouble over Gen. Mcclellan and
other incidents ultimately caused the
radicals to offer Mr.. Hamlin the Presl-
dency.
But by this time he was closer to
Lincoln than the radical leaders in
Congress and understood him better
than they did. Hence he supported
Lincoln. Chandler. Stevens and other
giants Of those days followed Vice
President Hamlin and supported Lin
coin for denomination. Sumner, Chase.
Wade. Henry Winter Davis and others
opposed him.
In his retirement. when Hannibal
Hamlin saw Lincoln's fame brighten
ing. he felt vindicated and first suy.
gested, in 1887. that the nation should
keep Lincoln's birthday as a nationa,
hoiiday. He made his last public
