Here is the story of one: On the morning of the day of the assassination a visit to the. White House was paid by my father, then a Senator, and an- otlier Illinoisan, who had been a presidential elector, and later a Federal . Iudge. And later a colonel of the Seventh Illinois Cavalry. My father said, " Mr. President, here is the man you want. " The President said, " That's so, he'll do, " and added, " I am going to send yon to Kew Orleans to be collector of the port — • j-ou will have 2, 000 em...ployees under you, all northerners, be- cause substantially all southerners are disfranchised ; but I want you to make love to those people dov, 'n there. " [Applause. ] It is of interest to record that at this interview the President, for some reason, said : " I want this commission issued now, " and did not rest \intil t!ie commission was delivered — sent over by the Secretary of the Treasury — and the two Illiuoisans walked out with the last commission ever signed by Lincoln.
