Lincoln probably completes his poem of 24 quatrains, "My Childhood-Home I See Again." He wrote to Johnston yesterday: "I have a piece that is almost done, but I find a deal of trouble to finish it." He sends first ten stanzas to Johnston April 18, 1846, remainder September 6, 1846, indicating that Lincoln drafted verse, was not fully satisfied with it, and retained it while considering improvements."My Childhood-Home I See Again, [25? February] 1846, CW, 1:367-70; Abraham Lincoln to Andrew Johnston, 24 February 1846, CW, 1:366-67.
