Lincoln writes to Kinkead about Oldham & Hemingway suit. "In the
autumn of 1849 I was at Lexington several days, during which time I
was almost constantly with L. O. Todd; and if he shall . . .
<uLine>think</uLine> he <uLine>remembers</uLine> that I told him I
had collected money for Oldham, Todd & Co., the story . . . would
be an utter mistake; yet . . . I . . . think it safest to look to
their making this proof . . . and to be prepared for it."

"Present appearances indicate that but few of the numerous cases
before the [federal] court will be tried at the present term,"
reports <uLine>Register</uLine>. "Many of the attorneys in charge of
suits are absent, and with those present we suspect the excessive
heat of the weather has produced an indisposition to labor, which, of
course, is very natural and proper under the circumstances."
