That was the last time I saw him to speak with him." LINCOLN AND REPORTERS.
Joseph Medill, the veteran editor of the Chicago Trib- ABRAHAM LINCOLN. 91 une, who was one of the corps of reporters, who followed Lincoln in the great debates with Douglas, tells the fol- lowing story: "You will remember that after Lincoln had been nom- inated he was asked to speak at Cooper Union, in New York. The eastern people knew nothing about him and they desired to see and hear him. Lincoln prepared a speech an...d gave copies to quite a number of us, request- ing that we study it carefully and make such corrections and suggestions as we saw fit. Well, I took my copy and went over it very carefully, and finally made about forty changes. The others to whom the address had been submitted were equally careful, and they made sev- eral amendments. When the speech was finally deliv- ered it was exactly word for word with the original copy which Lincoln gave us. Not a change suggested had been adopted. I never knew whether Lincoln intended to play a joke on us, or whether he really believed that the alterations were not effective.
