         <p>Illinois State Representative Lincoln, writes to Springfield
  businessman Robert Allen regarding an assertion that Allen is "in possession of
  a fact or facts, which, if known to the public, would entirely destroy the
  prospects of N[inian] W. Edwards and myself at the ensuing election." Lincoln
  advises, "through favour to us, you should forbear to divulge them." He adds,
  "I here assure you, that the candid statement of facts, on your part, however
  low it may sink me, shall never break the tie of personal friendship between
  us." <bibl default='NO'>
