FROM MRS. LINCOLN

Madam, -

I have received the letter, which your Majesty had had the kindness to write, and am deeply grateful for its expressions of tender sympathy, coming, as they do, from a heart which, from its own sorrow, can appreciate the intense grief I now endure. Accept, Madam, the assurance of my heartfelt thanks, and believe me in the deepest sorrow, your Majesty's sincere and grateful friend,

Mary Lincoln
