Lincoln inserts in "Sangamo Journal" card on his missing horse. "Any person who will take up said horse, and leave information at the Journal office, or with the subscriber at New-salem, shall be liberally paid for their trouble. A. Lincoln." Advertisement for a Lost Horse, 26 March 1836, CW, 1:47.

In Green v. Purkapile, the court sets the change of venue aside, and the defendant withdraws his pleas. Purkapile admits to slandering Green and causing damages in the amount of $2,000, whereupon Green releases Purkapile from paying the damages. The court orders Purkapile to pay all court costs. Record C, 194.
